Graduate Research Advanced Skills Program

The Graduate Research Advanced Skills Program (GRASP) aims to enable students to take control of their research project from the beginning and develop transferable skills in searching, reading, thinking and writing.

GRASP attempts to enhance essential research skills by providing HDR students with online resources, workshops, seminars and writing groups. The program also aims to promote awareness of effective communication in documenting, presenting and publishing research results.

To view upcoming workshops, see our blog post. Resources from past workshops can be found on this page.
