Wellington Doctoral Scholarship

Description.

These scholarships are intended to encourage and support doctoral study (PhD) at Victoria University of Wellington.

To encourage postgraduate research Victoria University of Wellington offers scholarships to those about to begin their doctoral studies. These scholarships are awarded on academic merit and are open to New Zealand and international students in any discipline.

Eligibility

These scholarships are open to graduates of any university within or outside of New Zealand who intend to enrol full time for a Doctorate (PhD) or who have commenced their doctoral study at Victoria University of Wellington. Please note: It is very important to refer to the website for regulations and further process requirements regarding an application for this scholarship.

Wellington Doctoral Scholarship regulations

All offers of Wellington Doctoral Scholarships consist of a $29,500 per annum stipend plus domestic tuition fees for up to three years.

The scholarships are offered to the top ranked candidates in any Doctoral admission and scholarship application round throughout the year. To be considered for a Wellington Doctoral Scholarship the applicant must have a strong academic record and excellent academic references, or:

• demonstrated potential for high quality research; or
• a record of publication in high quality journals commensurate with experience and education.

Other considerations may be taken into account such as the alignment between the applicant's research interests and those of the School, Institute or Centre. Strategic interests including collaboration between institutions or research involving potential joint initiatives with the research and business communities may also be factors in determining offers of scholarship.

Applicants other than those who have completed all of their study at Victoria University of Wellington must include a copy of their academic record from other institutions with the application form.

Currently the closing dates are 1 March, 1 July and 1 November. All applicants for the scholarship will be notified by email of the outcome within six to eight weeks of the closing date for applications.

Terms and conditions:

These terms and conditions apply to Victoria Doctoral Scholarships awarded from 2015 and Wellington Doctoral Scholarships from 2020.

• Applications are accepted from those who are eligible at the time of application, or who reasonably expect to become eligible within three months of their application, to register as a candidate for a Doctoral degree at Victoria University of Wellington.
• Applicants would normally be expected to have completed a Bachelor's or Master's degree with academic distinction equivalent to a First Class Honours degree at a New Zealand University.
• The scholarship offer shall lapse in the event that the scholarship recipient does not gain full enrolment as a Doctoral student within 15 months of first enrolment.
• Academic staff at Victoria University of Wellington or any other University may not hold a Welington Doctoral Scholarship while currently employed.
• Scholarships will be awarded on the basis of academic merit by the University Research Scholarships Committee (the Committee), a sub­ committee of the University Research Committee.
• Every scholarship shall be tenable at Victoria University of Wellington for a period of up to three years except as otherwise provided in this statute. If a recipient submits within the tenure of the Scholarship, stipend payments will cease no more than one month after submission.
• If an applicant has already been enrolled for a PhD at Victoria University of Wellington for more than six months at the time when the offer of a scholarship is made, the maximum length of tenure of the scholarship will be reduced at the discretion of the Committee.
• Scholarship recipients are required to sign a Wellington Doctoral Research Scholarship Contract. The administrative supervisor and the primary or Victoria University of Wellington supervisor will also sign the contract to indicate that they are aware of the terms and conditions of the scholarship and the contribution to the School required by this award.
• The tenure of every scholarship shall commence on a date to be determined in each case by the Faculty of Graduate Research after discussion with appropriate School and supervisor. The date of commencement shall normally be no later than six months after the scholarship has been accepted by the scholarship recipient for domestic students and nine months for international students.
• The Committee may grant a scholarship recipient a deferment of the commencement of the scholarship for longer periods if it considers that such a deferment would benefit the scholarship recipient's programme of research and the University.
• Tuition fees will be paid on upon registration by the Scholarships Office.
• Scholarship recipients must inform the Faculty of Graduate Research of any other awards held.
• Approval for the co-tenure of awards of greater than a total one third of the value of this scholarship stipend may result in a reduction in the value of the Wellington Doctoral Scholarship stipend. Faculty Research Grants are not considered under these regulations to constitute an award.
• Scholarship recipients shall be required to maintain full time enrolment and devote themselves full-time to their programme of research during the tenure of the scholarship and may not hold a position of emolument. However, domestic students for whom socially compelling reasons make part-time enrolment preferable, may apply to hold the scholarship on a part-time basis pro-rated.
• Approval may be given for scholarship recipients to undertake paid employment for up to a maximum of 600 hours in any one calendar year. All requests to undertake part­ time employment must be supported in writing by the supervisor(s) and Head of School.
• Once the period of tenure of a scholarship has commenced, the Faculty of Graduate Research may, grant a scholarship recipient a suspension of their scholarship for a period not exceeding six months or a total of twelve months during the first three years of registration. As the monthly stipend is paid in advance the recipient must provide notification in advance of the suspension. In most cases the scholarship suspension will coincide with a formal suspension from their Doctoral enrolment. Scholarship recipients must ensure that any commitments related to their work experience are discussed with the Head of School before the suspension is agreed.
• A scholarship shall be terminated if a scholarship recipient ceases to resume the aforesaid programme of research within one month of the last day of the period of the suspension.
• The scholarship recipient must complete six monthly reports outlining their progress to date and ensure that copies of these reports are available to the Scholarships Office.
• The Committee may at any time suspend or terminate a scholarship, or require the forfeiture of such proportion of the scholarship emolument as it may determine, if the scholarship recipient is not diligently pursuing their programme of research and is not making satisfactory progress, has violated the University Statute on Conduct, or has failed to comply with any of the terms and conditions on which the scholarship was awarded and of their Doctoral Scholarship Contract.
• At the discretion of the Committee, the application of any of the terms and conditions of a Wellington Doctoral Scholarship may be modified or relaxed in special circumstances or in order to avoid hardship to any scholarship recipient or misuse of the scholarship funding.
• The Committee shall review these Terms and Conditions from time to time.

No payment of the Scholarship will be made until this condition is met.
• The Scholarship cannot be deferred to a later year.
• The Scholarship may be held in conjunction with other awards.

The Business School Doctoral Scholarship Selection Committee has selected a variety of staff projects to be awarded one University of Auckland Doctoral Scholarship each in 2024.

Employee-(ro)bot collaboration in service: An institutional perspective

Supervisory Team: Joseph Yan ( Main supervisor, MIB) and Laszlo Sajtos (Mentor co-supervisor, Marketing) and Sihong Wu (Co-supervisor, MIB)

Abstract: Society evolves as technologies develop. Organisations across industries and around the globe are consistently under pressure to make sense of and adapt to new technologies. Workplaces in various industries have been augmented with smart, digital, and automated technologies, where human employees work alongside machines, robotics, and other types of artificial intelligence (AI) ‘co-workers’. The implementation of employee-robot collaboration is especially prominent in today’s service industries, and particularly at the business frontline where employees directly interact with and deliver value to consumers. It is well-known that this can create new workflows for employees, new experiences for consumers, and new images and reputations for the company. However, what remains understudied is how these dynamics can become more complex when the service provider operates across different regions in the world, where major differences in regulations, cultural norms, religious beliefs, and other institutions (i.e., social rules) can significantly shape firm strategy and performance. As such, this project adopts an institutional perspective and seeks to examine the impact of employee-(ro)bot collaboration on the performance of international service firms; and how this impact can change due to various institutional factors faced by the firm in global operations.

A Novel Pension Scheme That Incentivises Childbirth and The Quality of Human Capital To Provide Sustainable Old-Age Care and Equitable Macroeconomic Welfare

Supervisory Team: Debasis Bandyopadhyay (Main-supervisor, ECON) and Erwann Sbai (Co-supervisor, ECON)

As technology advances, people live longer, but fertility and the average child quality decline because the opportunity cost of a mother’s time for having children and supervising their education increases. It causes two economic problems.

First, the population may go extinct if fertility falls below the replacement rate. Second, as the population ages, a structural deficit emerges in the macroeconomy with too few taxpayers with reduced productivity to support a growing number of elderly adults alive.

A policy tradeoff emerges for the macroeconomy to achieve sustainable economic development: (a) upskilling experienced workers and raising their retirement age versus (b) rewarding mothers to raise the number and quality of future taxpayers.

The PhD thesis will investigate how best to provide sustainable old age care by raising the number and the average quality of taxpayers in the macroeconomy. It will identify macroeconomic factors that incentivise childbirth and parental supervision of education to ensure sustainable economic growth with equity. Then, use microeconomic panel data estimates of relevant parameters for a quantitative analysis of the model.

Our supervision team, with expertise in theoretical and quantitative economics, will empower students to achieve Taumata Teitei’s objective of pursuing “ambitious research confronting humanity’s greatest challenges” .

Sustainable urban growth with land rent and social dynamics under Globalisation

Supervisory Team: Zhi Dong (Main-supervisor, Property) and Edward Yiu Co-supervisor, Property)

Abstract: It is critical to investigate how globalisation affects sustainability of urban growth. The impact of globalisation on urban growth is multi-facets. It produces positive effects like urban and economic growth, poverty reduction and cultural exchange, but it also brings in challenges to people like income inequality, social dislocation and gentrification.

This research identifies key aspects towards sustainable urban growth under the effect of globalisation. It explores globalisation with supply side driven migration, immigration and urban growth. The theory of global commodity chains is blended with spatial and location theory to explain urban growth. Dynamic land rents for residential property sector are analysed under the forces of urban intensification and growth. The scale of sustainability for urban development is investigated alongside demographic changes, dynamic social interactions and urban intensification.

The study develops a new theory explaining the dynamic drivers for sustainable urban growth. Empirical evidence is drawn based on datasets from Stats NZ and CoreLogic, using econometric modelling. Effective policies for sustainable urban growth and development are proposed and discussed. The research sheds light on how to achieve sustainable urban growth and value creation for societies through policy implications and potential novel policy design.

Models of Waste Management in Healthcare Systems

Supervisory Team: Mahdi Mahmoudzadeh (Main-supervisor, ISOM) and Timofey Shalpegin (Co-supervisor)

Abstract: Medical practices in many countries have advanced to delivery via healthcare systems, where several parties/entities interact throughout a chain to accomplish an outcome. These chains of interactions often resemble those of supply chains for services and physical goods. Managing the waste generated throughout such a chain is essential to ensure its sustainability. For healthcare, often the waste is in form of hazardous waste, where improper waste handling can result in transmission of numerous dangerous materials to the environment. This project aims to develop models of waste management for healthcare systems. The focus will be on incorporating aspects that are crucial and specific for healthcare systems that makes them different from other sectors. All methodologies, including analytical modelling (e.g., logistics models, dynamic programming, game theory, etc.), simulation, and empirical methods, can potentially be employed, while the focus will be on developing models. The project will commence with a critical review of the models developed so far and will then advance to developing models. The outcome of the project can help practitioners and supply chain managers of healthcare sectors better manage the waste generated throughout the chain to minimize their hazardous impact.

Micro-level research on emerging space industries to better understand how and when entrepreneurial ecosystems promote sustainable innovation

Supervisory Team: Stefan Korber (Main-supervisor, MIB) and Lisa Callagher (Mentor Co-supervisor, MIB)

Abstract: New space industries have attracted significant interest from a wide range of stakeholders. Unlike governmental-led space programmes, this sector is driven by commercial organisations that leverage advancements in technology to make space more accessible. While some critics highlight the adverse environmental impacts of space industries, services and products delivered are seen as pivotal for sustainability transitions. Examples include satellites that monitor pollution and the use of AI to analyse space data.

Whether and how space-related activities contribute to a more sustainable future depends not only on focal organizations but also on contextual factors -  the innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystem (I&EE) - that support them. Yet, our understanding of micro-level dynamics in I&EEs that empower actors to co-create sustainable solutions is limited. This research project will employ qualitative methods and investigate the interactions of key actors - startups, universities, and investors - and their impact on the nature and magnitude of sustainable innovation and entrepreneurship within the 'new space' sector. The project aligns with 'leading the transition to sustainable ecosystems,' one of four priorities in Taumata Teitei, and integrates two strategic themes: Innovation & Value Creation and Productivity & Sustainable business. Apart from theory development, the project promises practical implications for managers and policymakers.

Multimodal Fusion for Financial Time Series Forecasting Based on Deep Learning

Supervisory Team: Dulani Jayasuriya (Main-supervisor - A&F) and Lina El-Jahel (Co-supervisor - A&F)

In a rapidly evolving business landscape, this PhD project delves into the intricate web connecting Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) criteria, green investing, and the emerging challenge of greenwashing. Leveraging advanced machine learning, the research aims to demystify and quantify the interplay between genuine green investments and CSR/ESG initiatives, while distinguishing them from greenwashing practices. This study intends to provide groundbreaking insights into how machine learning can enhance the transparency and effectiveness of green investing, ensuring that CSR and ESG commitments lead to substantial, verifiable environmental and social impacts.

The history and impact of the Fulbright program

Since its founding in 1946, the prestigious Fulbright scholarship program has given more than 400,000 individuals the chance to study, teach or conduct graduate research in another country, with the goal of building mutual understanding and peaceful international relations. Founded by longtime U.S. Sen. J. William Fulbright and sponsored by the U.S. government, the program operates in more than 160 countries and awards about 8,000 merit-based grants annually in various disciplines. Past winners of the scholarship include Nobel Prize winners, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalists and novelists, and renowned musicians. Here are 15 famous Fulbright scholars.

• Amar Gopal Bose

Music lovers may recognize the name Bose thanks to the popular speakers and headphones. The company's founder, Amar Gopal Bose, studied mathematics at the National Physical Laboratory in New Delhi, India in 1956 on a Fulbright U.S. Student award. Before that, he studied at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology on a full scholarship, earning his bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral degrees in electrical engineering. Bose rewarded himself with a new Hi-Fi system when he graduated with his doctoral degree. Disappointed with its inferior sound, he began working on a way to replicate a “concert hall-level” sound quality through a speaker. The Bose Corporation officially launched in 1964 and by 2021 posted annual sales of $3.2 billion.

Record-setting U.S. Olympic sprinter Lee Evans stands at the center of an indelible image from the American Civil Rights Movement. After winning the gold medal in the 400-meter run at the 1968 Summer Olympics in Mexico City, he stood on the podium and raised his fist in a black power salute. His protest on the world stage was a statement against racial segregation and racist Jim Crow laws. The human rights activist attended San Jose State University in California on a track scholarship, graduating in 1970. In 1986, he traveled to Cameroon as a Fulbright scholar and completed a project that brought together sociology, education and international development. In 1989, he was inducted into what is now the United States Olympic & Paralympic Hall of Fame.

• Milton Glaser

The famous "I Love New York" slogan emerged as part of a tourism campaign in the 1970s, spreading across souvenirs, T-shirts and pop culture in the decades since. Milton Glaser, the graphic designer who created the campaign's iconic logo, drew its first draft in red crayon in the back of a taxi in 1976. Glaser studied traditional etching at the Academy of Fine Arts in Italy on a Fulbright scholarship in 1952 and later designed for Bob Dylan and DC Comics. His long career produced numerous publications and architectural designs and more than 400 posters. In 2009, he became the first graphic designer to be awarded the National Medal of the Arts. A graduate of the Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art in New York, Milton was honored with the Fulbright Lifetime Achievement Award in 2011.
