In assessing for financial assistance, the Trustee gives preference to proposals that seek to establish a special niche in disciplines that will be of particular benefit to South Australia. Research projects having clearly identifiable potential for worldwide commercial application will also be highly regarded.
Preference will be given to South Australians carrying out research in South Australia or elsewhere. However, other persons involved in research in South Australia may also be eligible for consideration.
Undergraduate scholarships may be awarded to enable eligible South Australians to undertake relevant studies at approved centres in South Australia or elsewhere.
