New Adelaide Graduate Centre Website

.

The Adelaide Graduate Centre website has now been updated to the new University template and to a new structure intended to provide better access to the HDR information.

Forms and information provide a central point of access for material needed by staff and students through each stage of candidature. Here you will also find the material and information regarding candidature milestones and conduct of research information – critical components of any research project.

HDR information is now logically presented in key categories of future students, current students and staff and supervisors, providing quick access to the most relevant information and resources for each user group. In addition you may wish to access the Research Student Handbook which is the master source of public HDR information at the University of Adelaide.

Finally, please ensure you update any relevant bookmarks as necessary.
