Research grants

The 2009 round of the Criminology Research Council research grants, are now open. The completed application must reach this office no later than the closing date of 21 August 2009 (please note, a fax is not acceptable).

Grants are considered if they are public policy-relevant, have practical application, contribute to the understanding, prevention or correction of criminal behaviour and will make a substantial and original contribution to criminological knowledge. For examples of previous grants, see current and recently completed grants at the link below.

If you do not receive acknowledgment of your application please contact the Administrator on 02 6260 9224 before close of business on 21 August 2009. If your application is not received on time we cannot process it after this date.

A proposal that requires Ethics Committee approval, may be considered by the Council if approval is still pending at the time of the Council's meeting, in which case any grant will be conditional upon Ethics Committee approval being obtained. Applicants should take into account the time required for obtaining Ethics Committee approval in framing timelines for projects. Applicants may use any NH&MRC approved Institutional Human Research Ethics Committee.

Applications received after 21 August 2009 closing date will not be considered until the next round of research grants in November 2010.

The application kit is available for download in Microsoft Word and RTF formats. If you are unable to download either of these formats, please contact the CRC.
 

Note: The RTF file is much larger than the Microsoft Word version. To download the file, right-click on the link and select Save link as... or Save target as... from the pop up menu.

If you would like an application kit sent to you, or for further information please contact the CRC.
