Lecture 1: The Evolution of Australia's Antarctic Policy,
1901- 1959 (Dr Rob Hall)
This lecture outlines Australia's political, economic and
scientific interests that underpinned its policy toward Antarctica
from the heroic age of the early 1900s through to its significant
role in the negotiation of the Antarctic Treaty during the
1950s.
Lecture 2 & 3: The Science Liason Librarian takes you on a guided tour of the information sources in the science library and explains the fine art of referencing. You might think you know it all but take it from us - we have seen the assignments and we know you don't! Well worth it for those extra few marks in assignments.
