The University of South Australia offers a PhD scholarship to explore the evolving landscape of international students’ higher education choices in response to shifting policy environments. This research will use both qualitative and quantitative methodologies to investigate how new policies affect students’ motivations and aspirations. The project is based at the Centre for Research in Educational and Social Inclusion (CRESI), providing a unique opportunity to engage with high-impact research on international student services and academic strategies. Applicants must be bilingual and have a strong interest in educational policy and research.
