  • open up and maintain a diversity of career pathways traversing university and industry settings;
  • increase strategic engagement and alignment between universities and industry;
  • contribute to the solving of industry-identified challenges and opportunities; and
  • create commercial, economic and other benefits for Australia through enhanced translation and commercialisation, including the development of start-up companies.
  • The intended outcomes of the Early Career Industry Fellowships scheme are:
  • develop the industry collaboration skills of early career researchers;
  • support early career researchers to achieve translatable and/or commercialisable outcomes.

The candidate must have a Higher Degree Research (HDR) (or equivalent). Other eligibility requirements relate to the holding of other ARC fellowships and awards. All requirements are outlined in the Grant Guidelines.
