Postgraduate Research Festival
Postgraduate Research Festival
The Postgraduate Research Festival is an exciting annual event hosted by the Division of Linguistics and Psychology for its postgraduate research students. The Research Festival is held in December each year and all PhD students in Linguistics, Psychology, Macquarie Centre for Cognitive Science (MACCS), and the Centre for the Integrated Study of Animal Behaviour (CISAB) give a presentation about their research. It is a wonderful opportunity for students to receive feedback on their research, and to meet and build collaborative networks with other researchers in the Division. The Festival is largely organised by students and is of a very professional standard.
In 2006 Vice Chancellor Steven Schwartz gave an opening address and presented the inaugural Divisional awards for. A total of 122 students presented their work to a very high standard, either through oral presentations or by sending an e-presentation (for external students).
Festival 2007 is likely to see the high standard continue and the number of presentations increase, and will also include:
- Pre-Festival workshops on Monday 17th September, presented by Professor Max Coltheart and Prof. Ingrid Piller
- an opening address and presentation of Divisional awards for Excellence in Higher Degree Research by Vice Chancellor Steven Schwartz
- a discussion panel featuring key academic staff from the Division (more information to follow)
- a closing address by the Dean of Division, Sue Spence
For more information, including photos from last year's Festival, please visit the Research Festival website.
