Background

CaRST was implemented by the ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog to:

  • Develop a coordinated approach to HDR training across the ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog
  • Expand HDR training to take into account a variety of career destinations and skills development needs
  • Create a high quality and contemporary training program for researchers to become leaders in their chosen fields

Initially piloted in 2016, CaRST became a compulsory requirement for all PhD and MPhil students commencing on, or after, 1 January 2017.

There are a number of policies, strategies, and stakeholder feedback that have helped shape the CaRST program. These include:

  • ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlogn Graduate Research Good Practice Guidelines 2018
