FEIT Family Assistance Grant for Travel

Proud to foster a diverse and inclusive culture, the Faculty of Engineering and Information is committed supporting our staff and students interested in hosting or coordinating events that further the vision of the Faculty through our small grants programs.

FEIT Family Assistance Grant Scheme for Travel

Up to AUD $2,000 per year is available to all staff who are carers to help support their participation in meetings and conferences. These funds may be used for a range of care-related expenses, such as before- and after-school care, additional childcare days, cost of care services during travel, or travel costs for an accompanying child or carer. Other reasonable expenses that help enable attendance may also be considered.

Please contact your Head of School to arrange the support.
