Stresses in managing employment, family life and study
Concerns relating to supervision
Confidence issues regarding academic work and oral presentations
Motivation or procrastination problems
Being a mature age student
Adjustment to living in a new location
Stresses relating to fieldwork
Important life choices
Health concerns for self or a family member
Relationship issues

Seminars and Workshops

In addition to individual counselling, graduate students attend our Seminars and Workshops. We provide additional workshops for Higher Degree Research Students through the Academic and Professional Skills Program (APSP)
