2011 Postgraduate Research Competition - UNSW Science - The ...

welcome
It is my pleasure to welcome all participants and supporters to the Faculty
of Science Postgraduate Research Competition. This event has been
organised to recognise the outstanding research our postgraduate students
undertake. The event includes a poster presentation plus a speedy 1 minute
‘taster’ of the work along with an Abstract which you will see in this
program.
The Faculty recognises that the work of its research students is a
fundamental part of the high standing of the Faculty’s research. I
encourage you to look at the posters, listen to the presentations and
discover the research that is conducted in the Faculty of Science. Please
also interact with the students and enjoy the enthusiasm which they show
for their work.
I would also particularly encourage current students who are planning
research study, be it Honours, a PhD or a Research Masters, to talk with the
entrants about their work and experiences.
Afterwards, I am sure you will agree with me that we are fortunate to be
working with these future leaders of science and technology in academia,
industry and the broader community.
