Graduate Research Peer Mentoring - Intro & Planning

Help build our growing Graduate Research community

Year-on-year, we welcome new researchers, and farewell our graduates. Our community includes people from across the globe. Maintaining that community takes students, not just staff, actively creating opportunities to connect deeply across our Schools and Faculties. 

Graduate Research Peer Mentoring contributes to this community by providing a platform for you to extend your network, collaborate with like-minded students, support fellow students, and gain leadership skills in the process.

This meeting: A short online introduction to what the program is, the sorts of activities involved, and, planning the year's activities - yes, YOU get to have a say in the activities you do as part of the program. 

Held online for flexibility. Register to receive the meeting link.
