standard working day for the industry associated with the research end‑user; or
         b)      if there is no standard working day—7.6 hours.

     (5) For the purposes of determining the commencement date and completion date of an eligible research internship, a Research Doctorate student:
         a)      commences an internship on the first day the student engages in R&D activities which count towards the full-time equivalent days of engagement with a research end-user; and
         b)      concludes the internship on the last day the student engages in R&D activities which count towards the full-time equivalent days of engagement with the same research end-user.

     (6) An eligible research internship may be undertaken:
         a)      on-site with a research end-user, on-campus and online; and
         b)      part-time or full-time.

1.4.15  Grant Amounts for 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020 Grant Years

Subject to any adjustment that may be made under paragraph 1.4.30, for the 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021 Grant Years, the formula for calculating each HEP's RTP Grant Amount is:

where:
  =  the share of RTP Grant Amount* for ith HEP in the year prior to the Grant Year calculated according to the following formula:
  =  Year prior to the Grant Year *
  =  Funding Pool in year y
  =  Basic Grant Amount calculated in paragraph 1.4.5

* For the 2017 Grant Year only, each HEP's RTP Grant Amount for the previous Grant Year is equal to the total of Grant Amounts received by that HEP in 2016 under the former Australian Postgraduate Awards, International Postgraduate Research Scholarships and Research Training Scheme programs.

1.4.20  Grant amounts for 2022 and future Grant Years

Subject to any adjustment that may be made under paragraph 1.4.30, for the 2022 and future Grant Years, each HEP's RTP Grant Amount is equal to that HEP's Basic Grant Amount calculated in paragraph 1.4.5.

1.4.25  Rounding Process

The rounding process for RTP Grant Amounts is as follows:

     (1)                    The amount allocated to each HEP under paragraphs 1.4.15 or 1.4.20 is rounded down to the nearest whole dollar. The difference in cents between a HEP's rounded and unrounded RTP Grant Amount is its Remainder. The sum of all Remainders is the Unallocated Dollars.

     (2)                    Each HEP is ranked in descending order based on its Remainder's closeness to one hundred. One dollar is assigned to each HEP in order of ranking until all Unallocated Dollars are exhausted.

     (3)                    Each HEP's RTP Grant Amount is equal to the rounded amount calculated in subparagraph 1.4.25(1) plus any whole dollars assigned in subparagraph 1.4.25(2).

1.4.30  Adjustments

     (1)                    If a HEP provides incorrect HERDC or HESDC data used to calculate the HEP's RTP Grant Amount for a Grant Year, the HEP must correct the information provided to the department ('corrected data'),
