A bespoke PhD program that goes beyond conventional research training — embedding industry experience, commercial literacy and global mobility. (A small number of postdoctoral positions are also available from time to time.)
SAGE-M offers a genuinely distinctive PhD experience. Every student is co-supervised by both an academic Chief Investigator and an industry or science partner, with a structured placement at a partner organisation built into the program. On top of your research, you'll take part in a formal training program covering advanced catalysis, regulatory affairs, commercialisation and entrepreneurship — skills that make our graduates immediately valuable to industry. Stipends are paid at ARC rates, and the Centre's cohort model means you'll benefit from regular seminars, an annual showcase, and a national network of peers and mentors across four universities.
Applications are now open for PhD and postdoctoral positions with SAGE-M. We currently have three open projects:
