"Industry engagement for HDR candidates -- Research internship"

Industry or external engagement and career development for HDR candidates are inextricably related. With around half of our PhD graduates going on to careers outside academia, we want to ensure they are in the best position to contribute their specialist skills, knowledge and capabilities. In this workshop I will discuss one of the major engagement pathways for HDR candidates, research internships, explain the administrative process for it, outline ANU supports and offer pointers on how HDR candidates and supervisors can get started. At the end of the session we will also have time for Q&A.
