Research is the foundation for innovation, but research in and of itself is only the first step. Dissemination is key. This award recognises the best of our research higher degree students and their transformative scholarship.
This annual programme demonstrates Flinders University's commitment to high quality research dissemination. We celebrate the Best HDR Student Publications through these awards.
The Best HDR Student Publication is an initiative of the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research).
Awards will be made to students selected by each College. The value of each award will be $1,000.

3. Each submitted publication will be reviewed according to a general review process (judging criteria below).
4. Each College will select its winners.
5. Winners will be submitted by the College to the Dean of Graduate Research via email to hdr.progression@flinders.edu.au on or before 5pm on 8 December 2023.
6. The Dean of Graduate Research will award the ‘Best HDR Student Publication’ at an appropriate celebration.
Applicants should submit the following for review by the College:
- Copy of the publication
- Month the research output was published.
- A justification of why the publication is important.
- Number of citations.
- Impact Factor of the journal or refereed conference paper.
- Ranking of the journal in their field.
- For multi-authored publications, the relative contribution of each of the authors to the publication (% for the following components: research design; data collection and analysis; and writing and editing.)
- A letter of support from the Supervisor that includes additional evidence about the importance of the publication specific to the field of study.
- Does the publication make a significant original contribution to the field of study?
- Are methodology, research, evidence, and conclusions used appropriately and described clearly?
