Current Postgraduate Research Students
CeRME aims to support and encourage a strong and collaborative community amongst our postgraduate students. Part of this involves bringing our postgraduate students together for shared learning experiences, via web-based communities and through research symposiums. Symposiums in particular, provide opportunities to interact with leading national and international researchers and share your own research in a supportive learning environment.
Postgraduate students can be involved in personal or collaborate research projects through the Professional Inquiry paper (267.860 & 276.870), or master or doctoral thesis work. Below is a list of current postgraduate research projects:
