the Cultural Studies Association of Australasia (CSAA) and the Australia and New Zealand Communication Association (ANZCA). <br>

<span style="font-size:11pt; font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><font color="#000000">This event is designed for <b><u><span style="background-color:yellow">ALL</span></u></b> communication, cultural and media studies academics and aspiring academics, which means
that regardless of whether you are a fresh postgraduate student or a senior academic staff, there will be something for you at this event. The day will start with panel members discussing about what the future academic in our disciplinary areas is likely
to look like amidst the competing pressures – and pleasures – of teaching, research and networking (incorporating community and institutional services). Our eminent panel members include Professor Krishna Sen (UWA), Emeritus Professor Alec McHoul (Murdoch),
Professor Baden Offord (Curtin), Dr Debbie Rodan (ECU) and Dr Kathryn Trees (Murdoch). The panel will be followed by coffee and a forum on the future of WACCM (led by A/Prof Michele Willson and A/Prof Rob Cover). After lunch, participants will get to choose
to attend one of two important parallel masterclasses on “Getting Published” and “The Art (and Science) of Supervision” by seasoned presenters E/Prof Alec McHoul and Dr Kathryn Trees respectively.<br>
