Research project management
I deliver workshops to academic and professional staff at universities and research institutes on research project management, engagement strategies and enabling societal impact. [More]
These workshops draw on over 15 years’ experience managing externally funded research projects in a variety of disciplines at the University of Melbourne and RMIT University. In this time I managed projects involving individual researchers and small teams, as well as complex, inter-disciplinary partnerships involving multiple institutions, industry and government partners, including an ARC Linkage Project and Industrial Transformation Research Hub.
