The Division of Society, Culture, Media and Philosophy at Macquarie
University is keen to encourage suitable applicants to apply for a
fellowship through the Division. 

The Division of SCMP is dedicated to the conduct of quality
interdisciplinary and discipline-specific research and the training of
future leaders in three major areas which are at the cutting-edge of
contemporary society and culture in Australia and other liberal

culture; and indigenous arts and education. The Division houses the

Centre for Research on Social Inclusion (CRSI)
Department of Critical and Cultural Studies

If your research falls within one of these areas and you are interested
in applying for a fellowship, we invite you to contact the Divisions
Research Coordinator (details below). To enable us to source a potential
host for your application and/or possible collaborators for a team-based
Discovery project with an attached fellowship, interested applicants
