HDR Development

The Office of Graduate Research provides a number of programs and resources to HDR students to help you develop your research and transferrable skills and to prepare you for your future career.

Here you will find the development opportunities available.

REST (Research & Employability Skills Training)

REST is a skills training program that consolidates all research and transferrable skills training across the university into one program under the RDF. It is an individualised program, where students choose what training is most relevant to them and at what stage of their candidature.

Three Minute Thesis competition

Can you condense and refine your research project to quickly and succinctly explain it to your peers and the wider community? And can you do it in less than 180 seconds? The 3MT competition can teach you how!

WriteSkills (Intensive language support program)

The WriteSkills Program aims to assist international and NESB students with their written and oral communication skills and provide academic support and guidance throughout their candidature.

The Write Bunch (Online HDR writing group)

The Write Bunch, is a 30 minute intensive writing session via Skype held every Friday morning, from 10-10:30. This is particularly aimed at connecting distance HDR students and building an online community and support network.

COMS9001 (Communicating research topic)

This topic is available to HDR students as part of their candidature. The topic is intended for new students, in their second semester of candidature, to facilitate achieving the first HDR Milestones. The topic cannot be taken in the first semester of candidature, as students need have some written material to work with.
