Message from the Pro Vice-Chancellor

"I believe there must be a strong culture of caring about postgraduate research candidates.

In this way our students can quickly become part of our research community.

Through giving them our support and access to departmental resources, I believe they come to understand the important role they play in the research and teaching process, with their views often being sought by their more senior colleagues.

As an active researcher myself, I understand that the environment that surrounds a researcher highly influences the results they can achieve.

We must be willing to work to preserve the collaborative, supportive research environment that has sustained our excellent research record over recent decades."

Professor Zlatko Skrbis is the Pro Vice-Chancellor (Research and Research Training).
