Doctor of Philosophy and Master of Clinical Neuropsychology

Yes, UWA's Doctor of Philosophy and Master of Clinical Neuropsychology is described as Western Australia's only postgraduate training course in Clinical Neuropsychology.

To apply for a postgraduate research scholarship, you must: determine whether you meet the eligibility and selection criteria (including HDR admission and English language requirements), identify and secure academic supervisors with evidence of their agreement to supervise you, gather necessary documentation (CV, transcripts, identity documents, English language evidence), and submit your application during either the International Round (open 1 July – 31 August 2025) or the Domestic Round (open 1 September – 31 October 2025).

Scholarships are generally awarded to applicants who intend to enrol as full-time students. However, approval may be given for a part-time award where a domestic applicant is able to demonstrate compelling reasons, such as a medical condition or primary care commitments, which would prevent full-time study. Note that work is not considered a compelling reason for a part-time award.

Scholarships are awarded by the UWA HDR Scholarships Committee based on: academic achievement; research potential as evidenced by relevant research experience, research output, other research-related achievements and publications; and availability of appropriate supervisors, research facilities, equipment, funding and resources.

For the International Round, offers are made from 20 October 2025, with commencement between 2 February and 31 March 2026. For the Domestic Round (including UWA international students), offers are made from 8 December 2025, also with commencement between 2 February and 31 March 2026.
