About the Colloquium
The
Colloquium is a yearly event that brings students together to share
their research across disciplines and Schools. The Colloquium has a number
of academic and social aims that include:
-
providing a venue for students to present their work, in a supportive environment, to a wide audience including their peers, supervisors and other academics involved in research;
- fostering peer-support and networking between students and staff across the Division;
- providing an opportunity for students to discuss problems and issues with their supervisors and others; and
- providing an opportunity for interaction and discussion amongst researchers who embrace different approaches to research.
Research students are required as part of their Candidature to give 2 presentations as a minimum at the Postgraduate Research Colloquium. Students who have already presented their work at other seminars, conferences etc are still required to present further developments of their ideas at this Colloquium.
Students
are required to give a presentation, which embodies work
they have been doing as part of their candidature. This might be a summary
of work so far, a part of their research, a summary of results, or a
discussion of methodological issues that they have confronted. There is no
pre-determined view about what is appropriate; the guideline is what other
researchers in the Division may find of interest, and what candidates would
like to get feedback about. Please note that students are invited
to attend the Colloquium, whether or not they present.
