Post Graduate Education & Research Training Committee (PERTC)
PERTC is a committee of the Faculty of Veterinary Science consisting of the Associate Dean of Research, Associate Dean of Post Graduate Studies, Sub Dean of Post Graduate Research Training, Postgraduate Coordinators and postgraduate Student Representatives from each campus.
The committee is dedicated to the work and welfare of postgraduate students at the Faculty.
This committee is chaired by Assoc Prof Merran Govendir. Merran and her team are very willing to provide help and advice to current and potential postgraduate research students. If you have any personal, administrative or unsolvable academic issues during your candidature please contact your postgraduate Student Representative, who can advise you where to get help and can bring up broader issues at the PERTC meetings anonymously on students’ behalf.
