#RaiseTheStipend Finally, PhD stipends. The problem we all know is one of the “findings” of the Report (p14)⤵️

Excerpt from Report: “Research: The current stipend for Higher Degree by Research students is too low and is discouraging many of the best students from becoming the next generation of researchers. This includes students from under-represented backgrounds. Potential candidates are currently faced with an economic disincentive to pursue research training. The Research Training Program needs to be adjusted in order to address this.”
