*"Stories of Change"
Postgrad research (Honours, Masters, PhD and ECR) is often characterised by moments of significant change. This panel is about sharing and normalising the changes that happen during postgrad research. Members of the panel will share their experiences of change and resources that helped them manage. The panel will include:
- Current PhD Student
- Current International PhD Student
- PhD Supervisor
- PhD graduate employed in a non-academic career
- National Tertiary Education Union Representative
Western Sydney University (WSU) is pleased to host the 2019 Australian Sociological Association Conference, a return to Sydney for the first time since 2010. WSU’s School of Social Sciences and Psychology and Institute of Culture and Society will hold the conference in Greater Western Sydney (GWS) at our new Parramatta City campus and at other sites nearby.
