UQ Summer Research Project 2022-23
Submission Form

UQ SEED have clarified eligible locations for UQ summer projects this year. This is clarified as a UQ campus or building where a research student would not need any research agreement with the facility owner to participate on the project. If unsure on how this affects your location, please contact your RPM or complete the form below and the FoM Research Office will check.

You may register as many separate projects as you wish, but you are unlikely to have more than one project funded by the UQ SEED/Faculty budget. If you register more than one project, please prioritise them for the purpose of allocating the limited FoM-UQ SEED budget.

For assistance, email med.researchsummer@uq.edu.au. If you are hosting a project at MRI-UQ or QIMRB please do not use this form.
