-Provide a network of forum that will help enhance the research culture for PGs at LU;

-As appropriate, provide an opportunity for Masters and PhD students to fulfil the results seminar requirements for their degrees;

Vice Chancellor's Welcome

The annual Postgraduate Conference at Lincoln University is of major significance in promoting the achievements of postgraduate students and celebrating the diversity and quality of their research. The standing of the Postgraduate Conference continues to grow year by year and has become one of the key research related initiatives at the University.

A modern University requires a high level of postgraduate activity to support the overall research endeavour and the Postgraduate Conference is a central showcase for the innovation and creativity of our students. While research is sometimes seen as a singular activity, there is much to share and the multi-disciplinary focus of the Conference achieves a broader objective of informing participants of the particular challenges and approaches in specific research areas. This experience, plus the opportunity to speak publicly to peers, should have worthwhile benefits for all participants, as the spectre of future employments looms.

I wish all the presenters and participants a successful Postgraduate Conference and remember everyone will get more out of the experience if you all make a significant individual contribution.

I offer my good wishes to all Conference participants for a successful event.

Roger Field
Vice Chancellor, Lincoln University
