HCA Postgraduate Conference 2019

School of Humanities and Communication Arts Postgraduate Conference 2019 11th Annual Interventions and Intersections Conference Making Academic Research Count 27-28 June 2019, Parramatta City Campus The annual Humanities and Communication Arts Higher Degree Research Students Conference is a critical forum for all postgraduate researchers to present their ideas in light of a timely theme. This year, it’s all about “making academic research count.” The theme’s a perfect complement to the current buzz in the higher education sector about “impact” and “engagement,” making for a great opportunity for all postgraduates to consider their own position in relation to this thing called “academic research.” Join the discussion, meet some people, strengthen existing relationships, benefit from some advice, and get some feedback—all you need to do is present a paper at the conference. And, before you present on the day we’ll help prepare you with valuable advice about presenting your ideas at the conference, and we’ll help you write an engaging abstract too! Papers are welcome from all students in every year of their candidature (you might present ideas from your CoC). All disciplines in humanities are welcome, for example, languages, linguistics, philosophy, design, music and more. Seize the opportunity to get feedback from colleagues outside your direct area of research.
