The University of Adelaide’s International Fellows Awards (IFA) are designed to bring some of the very best research minds from around the globe to Adelaide to work with their researchers and students on key global challenges.
For visiting Fellows, this is an opportunity to advance their research in collaboration with a University that is consistently ranked among the top 1% of universities globally. Opportunities for joint publications, networking and linkages to industry across the University of Adelaide's portfolio of research excellence all offer visiting Fellows a unique opportunity. With access to South Australia’s diverse and culturally rich landscape, the benefits for International Fellows extend beyond their research portfolio.
The International Fellows Award was launched in 2023. Six Fellowships are available each year, with each individual Fellowship worth up to $20,000.
