Graduate research projects
This guide is for sites built in the new version of Drupal (like Study or Scholarships).
If you're working on a Drupal 7 (UQ Standard) site, see articles on Drupal 7.
Understanding graduate research projects
Graduate research project pages help prospective postgraduate research students find projects with a living stipend scholarship.
To be eligible to be listed the project must have a confirmed living stipend scholarship.
The projects are supported by 2 types of scholarship types:
- Earmarked scholarships
- Research project scholarships.
Creating a new graduate research project
You must be part of the Graduate School editorial group to create a project.
To create a new project:
- Log into the Study website, hover over 'Content' in the Drupal menu, and select 'Add content' > 'Graduate research project'.
- Follow the graduate research project author guide (staff login required) (PDF, 1.9 MB) for template and field guidelines.
- Select a workflow status and 'Save'.
Choose the appropriate workflow status:
- Draft if you're still working on the page and want to save an unpublished version.
- Needs review if you want to send the page to another editor for internal review. Enter the email address of anyone you want to notify (select Add another item to add multiple recipients). To provide context, add a brief note to the Revision log message field at the top right of the page.
- Ready to publish state should not be used. If you do not have access to publish and the project is ready to publish, save as Needs review and email your Graduate School publisher.
Site builders and publishers can save pages as Published or Archived.
Editing an existing graduate research project
You must be part of the Graduate School editorial group to edit a project.
Once you log into Study, you can either navigate to the page and click 'Edit' or access pages via the Drupal menu:
- Hover over 'Content' in the Drupal menu then select 'Research projects'.
- Search by title.
- Select 'Edit' for the relevant entry.
- Update fields as needed, following the graduate research project author guide (staff login required) (PDF, 1.9 MB).
- Select a workflow status and 'Save'.
Choose the appropriate workflow status:

- Needs review if you want to send the page to another editor for internal review. Enter the email address of anyone you want to notify (select Add another item to add multiple recipients). To provide context, add a brief note to the Revision log message field at the top right of the page.
