DocFest 2024 Virtual Graduate Research Conference

Charles Sturt’s annual virtual Graduate Research conference returns again in 2024!
This year’s theme is Navigating the Research Landscape.

Navigating a research degree is often likened to embarking on a challenging journey. Researchers must plan their milestones, have clear timelines and objectives, and know where to get the resources and support they need.
They must also be able to adapt to change, embrace emerging technologies and methodologies and the ever-evolving research landscape.

In 2024, DocFest will visit all of this and more, with a program of inspiring keynote speakers, topical expert discussion panels, papers and e-posters, and an intensive publishing workshop.

Monday 20 – Friday 24 May 2024
ONLINE from 12.00 – 4.00pm daily.
