Speak to your supervisor regarding an appropriate proposal which will generally be accompanied by a conference abstract. Establish whether or not conference attendance depends on the success of the application. Closing dates and more information are available at the Research Office. More information is also available on the web. The Learning Centre offers learning and language assistance to all students enrolled at the university of New South Wales.
Assistance is provided through workshops, discipline-based courses and individual consultations.
Contact the Centre for a complete list of workshops. Some workshops include 'writing up research', 'writing a thesis proposal', 'oral presentation and discussion skills', 'pronunciation', 'grammatical structures' and 'academic writing style'. An individual consultation with a Learning Adviser or a Peer Writer allows the student to seek help with any specific problems or issues that they may have with their studies. Our aim is to teach students study skills and techniques they will find helpful for a university education. Students can get help with essays and assignments on an individual basis by making an appointment with a Peer Writer.
