For Students

If you are a student with an interest in rural fire research or management, Scion offers opportunities for projects from Honours to PhD level.

Project options cover a range of disciplines (fire science, vegetation/fuels modelling, weather and climatic impacts on fire, fire economics, firefighter/human factors, social research).

In some instances scholarship funding may be available.

If you are interested in exploring these possibilities or wish to find out more, contact Grant Pearce.
