HDR Development Program
Expand your horizons, sharpen your research skills, and connect with your peers through Graduate Research School's HDR Development Program. Below are this semester’s training and development opportunities, wellbeing initiatives, events, and writing intensives.
Skills Development Framework
Each HDR Development workshop aligns with at least one skill in the Researcher Development Skills Framework (RDSF). The Q Reference (e.g. Q1.2) indicates which skills are addressed in the workshop. Online workshops are recorded at the discretion of the workshop presenter with the recording shared with registrants. Wellbeing sessions are not recorded.
Workshops
How to Navigate the HDR Development Program: The HDR Development Program of workshops is organised using UC’s Researcher Development Skills Framework and is designed to help you choose the right training for your degree stage. Each workshop is mapped to a skill quadrant and a degree stage so you can select sessions that align with your candidature and development goals.
- Foundation (Commencement to Confirmation): Build essential skills, develop core research practices, and gain confidence as an emerging researcher.
- Development (Mid-Candidature): Deepen expertise, refine your research approach, and strengthen professional capabilities.
- Advanced (Final Year and Beyond): Focus on completion, leadership, dissemination, and preparing for post-HDR pathways.
