ABOUT CREGA
The Chilean Research Group of The University of Melbourne (CREGA-Melbourne) was born in 2013, with the purposes of promoting, supporting and disseminating research projects and academic activities conducted by Chilean graduate students at The University of Melbourne, Australia.
CREGA-Melbourne is affiliated to GSA, the Graduate Student Association of The University of Melbourne, which has supported CREGA-Melbourne to be an independent association leading several academic-related activities for Chilean students.
The Chilean students, members of CREGA-Melbourne, have an opportunity to create bonds of cooperation, support and dissemination of academic activities and projects in Australia, in order to contribute to the development of Chile.
