ANZCIES Winter Symposium a Success!

Dr Natt Pimpa and Di Cullen organised our very first mid-year symposium at RMIT, School of Management on 11 June 2009. We would like to extend our sincere appreciation for their involvement in developing the programme and recruiting new post-graduate students in particular. A special thanks goes to Professor Brian Corbitt who was our keynote speaker and for RMIT in hosting the well-attended symposium.

 

Congratulations to Professor John Keeves who has been awarded the ANZCIES Distinguished Professional Achievement Award 2008.

 

It is with deep regret to hear of the unexpected passing of Professor Neville Postlethwaite in April this year. A few ANZCIES members have worked directly with Neville in the past and are in the process of writing a special tribute to him for his close friends and colleagues.
