Course study environment

Working closely with their supervisors, our Graduate research students enjoy regular meetings to discuss their progress. We also foster student collaboration by encouraging networking with other members of staff within their research group along with participation in departmental research presentations and Institute seminars. At the start of their studies new graduate students are given a full induction and each full-time graduate research student is allocated their own workspace and computer. Facilities for part-time students can be arranged according to their needs. Students and supervisors are invited to participate in the thriving PhD student forum - a bi-monthly gathering for all all students and supervisors to discuss research methods and present on-going projects.

Fostering our PhD Researchers

We encourage our students to publish their research results. In addition to supporting PhD Theses incorporating publications we also champion student poster and oral presentations at national and international conferences including: International Society of Autism Research Meeting, Organisation of Human Brain Mapping, and Society for the Study of Behavioural Phenotypes Conference.

Postgraduate training

Training courses run by the department, the Institute or through the Graduate School can be utilised as required to provide training in a wide variety of topics, from transferable skills to academic areas directly relevant to the student's thesis.
