What are the steps to submitting an SSP Project idea?
There are a few things to consider when developing your project idea, these include:
Ensure your idea aligns to the Project Selection Criteria
Members of the SSP Projects Team and nominated student partners review all submissions in alignment to the selection criteria. If the panel has queries, you may receive an email to seek clarification on elements of your proposal. Project Instigators will be invited to respond to these queries (as detailed within the specified timelines).
Review the timelines
Please check that you are available for the project induction period and for the duration of the project. If you have any concerns about the timelines, please reach out.
The SSP Projects Team are happy to meet in person or via Zoom to discuss your Project ideas and are happy to peer-review submission drafts.
If you would like feedback on your draft submission, you are more than welcome to email SSP@uq.edu.au. Please note the peer review dates in the timelines.

When you are ready, submit your idea using the below form. Please remember to submit before the closing date of your desired round (check timelines)
Once project submissions have been reviewed, you will be notified via email of the project outcome. If you are successful, here are some of the next steps:
