Postgraduate Research Induction - Semester 1, 2008
The Adelaide Graduate Centre’s next Induction Program will be held on Thursday, 28 February 2008. The Induction, which is compulsory for all commencing PhD and Masters by Research students, provides a valuable orientation to life as a research student at The University of Adelaide.

Research Students Needed
I am seeking two senior research students from each Faculty to participate in panel discussion sessions at the upcoming Postgraduate Research Induction on Thursday, 28 February 2008 (from approximately 11:25am to 1:00pm). Panels will be Faculty based, with each comprising a senior and experienced supervisor, a staff member from the Adelaide Graduate Centre, a subject librarian and two research students from the relevant Faculty. It is expected that each panel member will talk for about 10 minutes on their area of expertise with a general discussion and question and answer session to follow.
The student talks always receive very positive feedback from Induction participants and are considered one of the most valuable parts of the Induction Program. This is a great opportunity for you to provide your fellow students with a few tips and tricks to navigate their way through their research degree.
If you are interested in participating and would like further information about what’s involved, please contact Lisa Hurcombe on 8303 3882 or email lisa.hurcombe@adelaide.edu.au by 12 February 2008.
