The University of the Sunshine Coast (USC) and Wishlist have established a funding scheme to complement the existing Wishlist Research Grants Scheme. Two $20,000 grants will be awarded per year, for two years, to encourage local collaboration between USC and the Sunshine Coast Health and Hospital Service (SCHHS) researchers and clinicians.

Wishlist recognises the need to support and encourage research activity that contributes to improved health care and knowledge. This is in line with the Sunshine Coast Hospital and Health Service Research Strategic Plan (2013 – 2016)

The documents below outline the correct procedure for applying for the grants and the criteria that needs to be met. They are intended to be a comprehensive guide to ensure all applicants understand the requirements for submitting a complete application and maintaining a successful grant.

Applications will open Wednesday 14 January 2015 and will close at 5:00pm on Wednesday 25 February 2015.
