The program contains the timetable for 2013 showing when each workshop will be held on each campus. HDR students (and supervisors) are encouraged to attend any that are of interest, and you may like to discuss with your supervisor which workshops will be most useful for you at various stages of candidature.

Places in the workshops are limited, so if you want to attend please register as soon as possible via the Event Registration System. If you later find that you are unable to attend, please cancel your registration so that your place is made available to another student.

** These workshops may also be delivered via e-live. Please check the timetable for sessions.
