The ANU Researcher Development team run university-wide programs for all Researchers at ANU.

Events and workshops program

Our workshops are designed to support HDR candidates, supervisors and early career researchers in their work. To find out what events and workshops are currently on offer visit our Eventbrite Page. During the ANU campus shutdown, all workshops are offered online via Zoom. All events are open to all HDR candidates, supervisors and early career researchers. The events are multi-disciplinary and help you develop transferable skills and knowledge that will be useful to your future career.

The events and workshops program focuses on three main areas of the Vitae Researcher Development Framework, which outlines skills and attributes necessary to being a successful researcher

Engagement and Impact: academic publishing and communicating research findings.

Research Governance and Organisation: Ethics, research integrity, IP and copyright, research strategy, project planning and delivery.

Personal Effectiveness: career management, networking, team-work and personal productivity.

All ANU Researchers are sent notice of upcoming research-related news, events, and opportunities in the monthly edition of the HDR Update.
