ANU HDR Induction 2024
|
Welcome to ANU!
All new HDR candidates are invited to attend the HDR new candidate induction. This is a jam-packed week of face-to-face events and workshops designed to get your HDR candidature off to a great start.
In the mornings, the Researcher Development team will get you started on the right foot with information sessions and workshops. There will also be a mix of sessions by service providers from across the whole university, so you can see the full suite of support on offer. Your academic school and/or college will offer information sessions and other enrichment activities in one or more of the afternoons. These will be a good chance to get to know other HDR candidates in your local area.
There is also an optional (free) scholars’ dinner at the University House in ANU. Please register here.
A free excursion will be organised on the last day of the ANU HDR Induction and lunch will be provided. Please register here.
