Amounts in excess of this may be authorised under exceptional circumstances at the discretion of the Vice-Chancellor and President.

Staff appointed to the level of professor in the University and staff appointed to the level of associate professor in the Carumba Institute, and who have not previously held this position at the University, are eligible to receive a New Professors Scheme grant.
