Through the Army Research Scheme (ARS), the Australian Army Research Centre contracts researchers within Defence and from think tanks, academics and independent scholars annually to undertake research on priority topics identified by Army. To that end, researchers are invited to apply for funding to address one of the 2023 ARS questions identified in the Army Futures Research Framework. Research funded under the ARS will be considered for publication in the peer reviewed Australian Army Journal, Army Occasional Papers or Monograph series. For more information about the scheme, prospective applicants should read the Framework and go to our ARS page.
