No need to suspend your scholarship stipend on receipt of a research internship stipend. In fact, we encourage you to continue to receive both payments during the period of your internship and manage your finances accordingly. 
  1. Review the conditions of your scholarship and consider any tax implications.
  2. Submit your fully signed research internship agreement to GRS for approval via internships-grs@uwa.edu.au .
