The University expects that students commencing in first half year will commence early in the enrolment period. However it is important that every effort is made to commence in time to attend the Central Commencement Program and the associated Divisional Commencement Programs to ensure you have the best possible start. You will be disadvantaged in terms of a good start to your research if you do not attend these programs at the beginning of your research.
