Higher Degree by Research Conference Showcases Scholarly Engagement and Career Insights by Madeleine Perrett and Frankie Bray
The Adelaide Law School recently hosted its annual Higher Degree by Research (HDR) Conference, organised by HDR representatives Madeleine Perrett and Frankie Bray. The event brought together research students, academic staff, and legal professionals for a day of vibrant discussion, reflection, and professional development.
Panels in discussion during the HDR Conference

Attendees benefited from the insights of eminent legal figures, including two senior barristers, who shared reflections on legal practice and scholarly engagement. Dedicated sessions on careers in academia, conference participation, and professional development offered HDR students practical guidance for navigating the next stages of their research journeys.
