The RTP is government funding to support both domestic and overseas students undertaking Research Doctorate and Research Masters degrees introduced on 1 January 2017. The RTP replaced Australian Postgraduate Awards, International Postgraduate Research Scholarships and the Research Training Scheme.
Students undertaking Research Doctorate and Research Masters degrees and who are RTP recipients (at any time during their candidature) are required to acknowledge it with the following in their thesis: "This research was supported by an Australian Government Research Training Program (RTP) Scholarship".
You may refer to your letter of offer contract if you are unsure if you have received a RTP scholarship. A list of all the scholarships you received can also can be found in your HDRhub profile by checking the "Scholarships" tab in the right hand menu.
