Graduate College Annual Research Student Exhibition

All research students, at master's and doctoral level, are invited to submit and showcase their work at the 2019 Graduate College Research Student Exhibition.

Compete with your fellow research students for a chance to win a range of cash prizes and have an opportunity to showcase your work to the wider University and external visitors.

We have hired out the carpeted area of The Forum to properly showcase your submissions, not only to students and staff, but to visitors of the University. This will be a fantastic opportunity and a worthwhile experience for any of you who choose to get involved. Last year’s event was very successful with practice-based installations, printed word entries and poster presentations. You can read more about last year's event in the Graduate College Newsletter.

We hope the submission categories will make it easy for research students from across the faculties to get involved;

- Printed word  ... including conference papers, abstracts, journal articles, book chapters.
