Overview
This five-day intensive residency will allow you to ensure that your doctoral research is on track and being carried out as planned. The intensive residency has a clear hands-on focus, and participants are expected to make significant progress on their thesis research.

To achieve this it is imperative for participants to have already identified their research or workplace-based problem or issue that they are, or going to, approach as part of their doctoral research.

Participants can expect tailored advice and support on the development of their research project and pathway/s towards its successful execution.

Participants will also be able to learn from their peers' research projects.

Participants will be provided with one-on-one meeting opportunities with the residency team to maximise individual feedback and guidance.

The residency team of mentors and coaches will be available at the edition level prior to the start date.

We offer just the right training opportunities to help you prepare for the big days: see below for our clubs, workshops, advanced courses, and webinars that cater to the same stage of your journey!
