To assist you with your Bphil/MRes Y1 journey, we have created a panel of MRes Mentors who will discuss important and relevant topics you - may face during your MRes first year.

Such topics include

Balancing coursework and research:

Finding time in Year 1 for both your coursework study and research thesis planning

Finding a supervisor and developing your research topic:

Finding an area of interest and narrowing it down to a Research Question can be tough, but if you find the right supervisor at the right time, you can handle this process much more easily.

Time management: life/study/work/ balance

Addressing how to balance a full time study with our family life and work, by discussing effective strategies.

There will be a Q&A session

Come along and hear from those who have just experienced it! Bring along your own questions, concerns, and worries! This is a fun, exciting and open atmosphere for you to feel part of our community here at Macquarie. Bring along your fellow HDR friends! The more, the merrier!

This program aims to create a supportive environment where students can help each other normalise feelings and concerns about their adjustment. Our Mentors can offer their knowledge and share their student experience to create a fulfilling and enjoyable research community.
