ANU HDR Induction 2024: only two weeks to go!
|
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 (which takes place the following week) of the ANU HDR Induction and lunch will be provided. Please register here.

TPR Bootcamp
|
The Thesis Proposal Review (TPR) - now called 'Confirmation' - is the first big, high- stakes milestone in your PhD journey. The TPR should set out a clear research problem, situate your research proposal in the literature and tell the audience how you plan to carry out the research. This boot camp will give you time and structured support to complete this document to a high standard and plan your oral presentation.
Come and write with us! Just remember: EOI closes on 24 April 2024.
