RESEARCH DEGREES

"Probably my favourite experience during my PhD program, was travelling to London and doing a six month internship with business and news broadcaster, CNBC. I was also given other opportunities to travel, to present at conferences and deliver seminars to the Institute's corporate sponsors. I am extremely grateful for the opportunity to have grown and expanded my professional skill set whilst undertaking a research degree. I believe this has made me a well-rounded researcher and also a competitive candidate for marketing research positions in industry."

"My PhD with the Australian Track Cycling Team is focused on using the Critical Power model. This model decribes the maximal work capacity of elite athletes through aerobic and anearobic contributions to exercise. As part of my research I worked directly alongside the head coach of the Australian team, providing sport science support in areas of physiology, biomechancis and performance analysis."

Megan investigated the ways in which culture and practices in a secondary school can foster a students' sense of belonging as a foundation for their learning. "I really enjoyed working with my research participants and being able to tell their story to some degree. Plus, my PhD also helped me gain confidence in myself and my abilities – it's been amazing to see how much I've grown during my studies."
