Supporting the best and brightest researchers

Supporting the very best and brightest researchers is at our core.  We offer excellent support for our early- and mid-career research fellows, through mentoring and targeted support schemes.

Fellowship benefits

The University of Sydney has invested heavily in research capacity across the full spectrum of the sciences, and many of our fellows have used the opportunities within their fellowships to catapult their careers into research leadership roles on the national and international scene.

From an island field station on the Great Barrier Reef, to nanoscience laboratories, our scientists have access to world-leading facilities and equipment. 

Our research centres and core research facilities offer collaborative spaces, a critical mass of researchers, and the very best research tools available.
