Fernandez said that REDI offers something novel by combining intersectoral and international opportunities in Barcelona and Melbourne with skills training aligned with industry needs.
'We are very proud to be setting a new standard. This is an initiative that will launch research careers and the co-funding from the European Union's prestigious Marie-Sklowdowska-Curie program underscores this vision.
"There’s a reason REDI ranked first in its European Union funding round," Fernandez said.
REDI gives candidates the choice of more than 120 industry-supported projects, and the chance to set themselves apart from the rest and address real-world challenges across a wide range of disciplines, including architecture, aeronautics and medicine.
REDI candidates will be able to reap rewards that includes global connections, international experience and exclusive research opportunities, some directly hosted by industry leaders, financial support and up to four years to complete their research.
RMIT Europe is leading REDI and is now seeking highly-motivated researchers.
The first call for applicants starts on 1 October 2021, with a second call to take place in early 2022.
