HDR Festival: 5-7 February, 2024
In February 2024 the Graduate Research School ran the first ever HDR Festival for Higher Degree Research candidates from across the University of Wollongong. The event spanned 3 days and included a number of presentations from knowledgeable and experienced speakers. We had over 150 people register for this event and were so please to have so many HDR candidates join us.
Some of the highlights included a debate on research ethics and integrity, a motivational speech from Distinguished Professor Sharon Robinson, and a presentation from a range of UOW academics on how to take care of yourself as an HDR candidate
Recordings of all sessions from the HDR Festival are now available on the Higher Degree Research Development Hub Moodle site.
