[Australia] The Macquarie University Research Excellence (MQRES) PhD Scholarship in Child Anxiety

Closing Date: 11 June 2007
A Macquarie University Research Excellence (MQRES) PhD scholarship in Clinical Psychology is available on a project evaluating cognitive behavioural treatment for anxiety disorders in children. The successful candidate will join a research team in Macquarie University’s Centre for Emotional Health (http://www.ceh.mq.edu.au) and will be supervised by Dr Jennifer Hudson and Professor Ron Rapee. The Centre focuses on the understanding, treatment and prevention of anxiety, depression and related mental health problems. The PhD project will be part of a large randomized clinical trial evaluating the efficacy of parent anxiety management in the treatment of children with anxiety. Possible areas include: evaluating the importance of homework tasks in the treatment of children with anxiety; peer relationships and anxiety disorders.

MQRES Scholarships are available to Australian and international students. Applicants should have completed an Australian four-year undergraduate degree in Psychology with first class honours, or demonstrate equivalent research qualifications (such as a Masters degree with substantial thesis component) from an Australian or overseas University.

The scholarship pays a living allowance currently $19,616 per annum, tax exempt (2007) and the tenure is 3.5 years full time, subject to satisfactory progress. Tuition fees will be funded for the scholarship tenure, with domestic students receiving Research Training Scheme (RTS) placement for their tuition, and International award holders having their fees sponsored. Additional funds will be provided to cover direct research expenses, and several generous internal schemes exist to request expenses for travel to visit overseas laboratories and attend conferences.

Further information and discussion regarding the project may be obtained by contacting the supervisor, Dr Jennifer Hudson, email: jhudson@psy.mq.edu.au .
