Scholarship opportunities

Crop disease management

This project aims to integrate novel automated disease surveillance technology into real-time management of crop diseases for improved yield and sustainability outcomes. The expected outcome is grower recommendations for crop diseases informed by real-time automated disease surveillance. The potential benefit is improved productivity and sustainability through reduced crop losses and chemical inputs.

Communicating in the real world

This project aims to utilise existing sensor technologies to evaluate the impact of hearing loss when communicating in noisy environments. The expected outcome is the discovery of novel analysis methods that utilise multi-sensor fusion techniques. The potential benefit is improved outcomes for individuals with hearing loss.

Compostable plastics

This Project aims to design and develop compostable plastics. The expected outcome is to produce new materials and compositions from sustainable sources to make plastics. This could benefit Australia to find new ways to make plastics that are sustainable and circular.
