Eidos Research Groups
Eidos Members participate in seeking and accessing 1) Internal Competitive Research Funding and 2) External Tenders .
1) Internal Competitive Research Funding
Eidos gratefully acknowledges the work of the Australian Housing and Urban Research Institute which inspired our approach to the 2006 Annual Competitive Research Grants.
Eidos funding is only available to funding members. Contact relevant Research Committee member for confirmation of participation and membership.
Research projects typically consider single and discrete research questions. They are funded through an annual competitive funding round and by inviting tender responses to research briefs issued throughout the year. Research projects may vary in length from a few weeks to a few years and range across discrete secondary data analysis to significant primary data collection exercises.
Approximately $250,000 is available in the 2006 funding round to fund research projects to be undertaken by Eidos Research members. Eidos funds medium projects (up to $60,000) and large projects (up to $125,000).
