Research Induction Ceremony

This ceremony marks an important step in the lives of our HSC doctoral students who have competed their core educational coursework, identified their mentor, and are now entering their selected areas of graduate research. The white coat presented at this ceremony symbolizes the entry of these early career researchers into the process of inquiry and discovery. It also serves to recognize the bonding of mentor and student in a mutually supportive interaction that is key to successful training for a career in research.
