Associate ProfessorNatalie Robertson

As a highly experienced career educator, I highly value the intergenerational exchange of knowledge – to accompany students as they navigate their relationship with learning. How might each student find ways to find out what matters to them and how to tell their stories?

I deliver taught courses in the School of Art and Design, as Paper Leader in Contextual Review in Postgraduate Studies for Master of Design and Master of Visual Arts; as Paper Leader in Photographic Practices Minor reaching approximately 150 students each year; and studio and design research papers in Communication Design.

I have supervised over forty postgraduate students to completion, including several PhD candidates. Of these, twenty-four are Māori and/or Pasifika students, with some continuing from Masters to PhD with my supervision. I am currently working with three candidates on their doctoral supervision teams. As an external examiner, I have assessed a wide range of postgraduate candidates nationally and internationally, including Australian First Peoples students.
