The Australian Institute of Criminology invites applications from individuals or organisations seeking to undertake quality research which is relevant to both current and future criminal justice policy and makes a substantial and original contribution to criminological knowledge.
The Institute encourages research that incorporates collaborative funding from other agencies and sources.
Application forms will be available on this website on Monday 16 April.
The closing date for applications is Friday, 17 August 2012.

- The CRC ceases, but the existing Council members become the new Advisory Council members
- The CRC Grants program is re-named as the Criminology Research Grants program – with no major change to the annual research grants process.
