Anindita Sarker The stipend scholarship helped cover my living expenses throughout my graduate research journey, as well as the costs related to my PhD fieldwork. With this support, I was able to conduct rigorous data collection as part of my study. I chose Monash because its collaborative, cross-disciplinary projects are creating real impact in our world. The foundation courses and workshops played a big role in advancing my understanding and skills as a researcher. And thanks to my standout supervisors, academics, peer groups and academic language specialist, all the support I needed was there – I only had to ask. |
