Macquarie University has very active language acquisition and psycholinguistics groups (e.g., we have a MEG machine for real-time brain imaging). It's a great place for anyone interested in computational models of language acquisition or psycholinguistics, and Sydney is a wonderful place to live! These scholarships are 2010067 and 2010068 in the on-line form, but I suggest you contact Mark.Johnsonmq.edu.au before beginning the formal application process.
