Postgraduate studies & Internships

Postgraduate Studies

I am currently accepting new students for supervision in Masters and PhD programs. If you are interested in pursuing postgraduate studies in the area of Computer Networks, you may list me as a proposed supervisor. You may also wish to look at the work of Dr. Cruz Izu, Dr. Nick Falkner, Prof. Hong Shen and Mr. Kevin Maciunas who also have research interests in Computer Networks.

Admission is competitive and competition for postgraduate scholarships is strong. Applications for both need to go to the University. I can not tell you in advance of applying whether you will be accepted or receive a scholarship. It will depend on the strength of the other applicants. So the way to find out is to apply. The applying to study site has detailed information on how to apply for postgraduate studies.

Summer Internships

I will consider summer internships; but if seeking an internship you must be able to provide your own support. Financial support for summer project students is only available for students currently enrolled at the University of Adelaide. If you are able to provide your own support, please indicate this in your e-mail. Otherwise you will receive no response.

Funding possibilities

The University offers several competitive scholarships for postgraduates and undergraduates. It is also possible to establish industry scholarships, if you have funding from your employer.

The University and department together offer Adelaide Summer Research Scholarships for students who are currently in second or third year and want to do some research work over the summer break. Usually the projects last from 6-8 weeks. Students should arrange a project with a staff member before applying for a scholarship. You must be a student enrolled at Adelaide University to apply. Applications typically must be in around September/early October.

Unfunded positions

If you are interested in research experience and have your own funding, you are welcome to request an unfunded internship on any of my current projects or in any area of research related to my research interests.  Please specify that you are seeking an unfunded position, if no funding is available.
