Short-Term Research Opportunity at The Australian National University

About the Program

Universitas Diponegoro, in collaboration with The Australian National University (ANU), invites eligible UNDIP students to explore the Future Research Talent (FRT) Awards – Indonesia 2027. The FRT Awards provide an opportunity for talented students from collaborating Indonesian universities to undertake a short-term research visit at ANU in Canberra, Australia, and gain valuable international research experience. The Future Research Talent (FRT) Awards are designed to support promising Indonesian students and researchers in developing their research skills and building academic connections with ANU researchers. Selected participants will undertake a research project at ANU for approximately 11–12 weeks, working with ANU academics and researchers in their relevant field.

This program is primarily a research visit/research internship opportunity, rather than a conventional student exchange program involving coursework.
