Two CAIS research scholars, Firouzeh Khoshnoudiparast and Dirk van der Kley, have been awarded the valuable Endeavour Scholarship for overseas research.

The Endeavour Scholarships, funded by the Australian Government, support the internationalisation of the Australian higher education and research sectors and offer high-achieving Australians opportunities to increase their knowledge and expertise in their field.

Firouzeh applied to attend the University of South Florida to continue her reserach on 'The Diplomatic Theory of International Relations: Iranian Diplomacy and Negotiating Behaviours'.

Dirk is attending the ​Xinjiang Academy of Social Science in Urumqi, China where he will conduct research for his PhD thesis on Chinese economic policy implementation in Central Asia.

CAIS Director Prof. Saikal and CAIS staff congratulate them on their achievement and wish them well on their respective ventures.
