Prof Lynette Chua, Vice Dean (Research), hosted our Doctoral students to a dinner to mark the start of AY2024 and to extend a heartfelt welcome to our new Doctoral candidates. The dinner took place at Whole Earth, a Michelin Bib Gourmand awarded restaurant renowned for its innovative fusion-Peranakan cuisine.

The dinner was preceeded by the first Doctoral Workshop of the academic year. The Doctoral Workshop is a year-long course which provides a vital platform for our NUS Law PhD students to refine their research proposals, enhance their research skills, and test their hypotheses. The workshop involves presenting ongoing research and receiving constructive feedback from peers and fellow researchers. This collaborative process is essential for advancing their scholarly work and setting the stage for a successful year ahead.

The first workshop was graciously moderated by Dr Li Teng, of our Centre for Asian Legal Studies, who joined us for the welcome dinner as well.
