Only Domestic applicants accepted
The Electromagnetic Informatics Lab at Global Big Data Technologies Centre/ Faculty of Engineering and Information Technology, University of Technology Sydney (UTS) is recruiting two full-time Master-by-Research students supported by DSTG (Defence Science and Technology Group).
- The length of the candidature for Master-by-Research is two years. For the first year, the students are required to study full time at DSTG, Adelaide. For the second year, the students are required to study at UTS, Sydney.
- The candidates should be Australian Citizens or have Australian permanent residency.
- For each student, a scholarship of $ 28,845 will be provided as a living stipend each year for the 2-year study (in total, $57,690 for two years).
- Another $10,000 per student is provided to cover project costs and travel cost between Sydney and Adelaide.
- The students should have a Bachelor degree in electronic engineering or related fields. Priority will be given to those who have a solid knowledge of Electromagnetic Fields, Antenna and Microwave Technologies.
Student 1 - Project 1: This project aims to develop new conformal antenna technologies with steerable highly directive beams for unmanned aerial vehicles.
Student 2 - Project 2: This project will focus on designing a compact multi-array antenna system using modern materials where material properties can be manipulated electronically to achieve an electronic beam steering capability for airborne platforms.
