Macquarie University Vice-Chancellor's Innovation Fellowships Scheme (MQVCIF)
This Scheme is designed to attract outstanding researchers to the University who will focus on developing effective research collaborations with Australian/International organisations from industry, commerce, government (excluding publicly funded research agencies) and community groups. The research may be undertaken in any discipline area of the University, though it must be aligned to designated Macquarie University research strengths.
Up to three full-time Vice-Chancellor's Innovation Fellowships will be awarded on a competitive basis and will be tenable from 1 February 2007 for two (2) years in the first instance, with provision for renewal for up to five (5) further years, subject to satisfactory performance against agreed objectives. These will include as a minimum, successful application/negotiation for a substantial industry-linked (and externally-funded) research project covering the period of the extended appointment.
