Relevant Research - May 2023

We are looking forward to celebrating Professor Caro McCaw's promotion at her Inaugural Professorial Event in Dunedin on 7 June. You are most welcome to join us. Please click here for more details and to register.

Then on 29 and 30 June we are hosting a Teaching Excellence Symposium, in Dunedin and online. Please register by 21 June if you would like to attend.

We are also pleased to announce that the scope of Relevant Research is changing to an OPSITARA publication, reflecting our closer relationship with our colleagues at Southern Institute of Technology (SIT) and Ara Institute of Canterbury in the southern region of Te Pūkenga. The acronym OPSITARA has been used for several years already for our combined annual research symposium. We hope you enjoy reading more about the research by kaimahi (staff) and ākonga (learners) across the greater region.
