Dear ASA Members,

We would be grateful if you could bring the following to the attention of
interested students.


PhD Scholarships at Swinburne University: Expressions of Interest due
mid-April

http://astronomy.swin.edu.au/study/postgradstudy.html

The Centre for Astrophysics & Supercomputing (CAS) at Swinburne University
of Technology (Melbourne, Australia) invites applications for its PhD
program and scholarships from Australian and international students.

Expressions of Interest for PhD scholarships beginning in late 2012 are due
by April 16, 2012.

With 16 research faculty and 50 postdocs and students, CAS offers a
vibrant, research-focused and friendly atmosphere where PhD students help
conduct - and learn how to lead - cutting-edge research.

CAS has a collaborative agreement with Caltech guaranteeing up to 20 nights
per year on the 10-m Keck Telescopes (Hawaii). CAS also hosts "The Green
Machine" and the GPU-based "gSTAR" - two of Australia's most powerful
supercomputers.

Our research strengths cover many areas of astronomy, from cosmology and
the large-scale structure of the Universe, to quasars and the most distant
known galaxies, to clusters and groups of galaxies, down to our own Milky
Way, its structure and fascinating contents: pulsars, neutron stars,
globular clusters, stars and planets. We also research 3-D visualisation
techniques and applications of advanced scientific computing.

CAS scholarship stipends are, at minimum, AUD$26,728 per year (tax free)
for both Australian and international PhD students. In addition to their
scholarship stipend, students are allocated a high-end computer and may
access internal research funds for telescope observing trips, conferences
etc. Swinburne's Hawthorn campus is situated in a lively, urban setting
just minutes by public transport from Melbourne's city centre. A relocation
allowance is available for students and their dependents. Other benefits
include thesis publication allowance, standard 4-week p.a. recreation leave
plus sick leave (including carer leave), paid maternity (12 weeks) and
partner leave entitlements.

For details about postgraduate study at CAS, including available
supervisors, PhD topics and how to apply, see
http://astronomy.swin.edu.au/study/postgradstudy.html

The deadline for Expressions of Interest is April 16th, 2012. Shortlisted
applicants will then be invited to discuss PhD projects with possible
supervisors well before Swinburne's formal scholarship deadline (May 28th,
2012).
