Postgraduate Day & Conference Scholarships
Honours Poster Presentations
The Conference Organising Committee has also accepted an innovation suggested by the Postgraduate Representative on the TASA Executive, Tara McGee. This is the introduction of a Poster Session for Honours students. Guidelines for the posters will be on the conference website in the next day or two.
TASA Postgraduate Workshop
The TASA Postgraduate Workshop 2005 is being held in Centenary Lecture Theatre 1. Click here for a map of the UTAS campus. The day will begin at 10:30am. So that we can begin on time, please come early to find a seat and settle in for the day.
The planning for this Workshop is being done by Tara McGee tr.mcgee@qut.edu.au (Convenor and Postgraduate Member on the TASA Executive), and Helen Hutchinson hhutchin@postoffice.utas.edu.au (Postgraduate Member on the Hobart Conference Organising Committee). Enquiries are welcome, particularly from first-time conference goers who may be uncertain how TASA conferences are organised or from those who seek further information about postgraduate scholarships.
