Science grants now available

THE Queensland Government’s Engaging Science Grants offer funding to boost public awareness of science and promote STEM careers.

Grants of up to $20,000 are now open and available for projects and events that align with the Future Queensland Science Strategy’s community goals. 

They must seek to empower community awareness and engagement in science. 

With a total of $500,000 in funding, the grants encourage projects that engage diverse stakeholders, particularly under-represented groups and regional communities. 

Since 2016, over $3.1 million has been awarded to 258 recipients.

Applications for the 2025 round close on September 27 2024, with projects starting in early 2025.
