Message from the
Vice-Chancellor
I am delighted to welcome you here for this graduation ceremony.
Well done to all who are graduating today
for successfully completing your course.
At this time we must also acknowledge the
Swinburne academic and professional staff
who made your learning experience possible,
as well as parents, spouses, siblings,
partners and friends whose encouragement
has played a crucial role in your success.
Today your graduation allows us to celebrate
your achievements. You have fulfilled the
requirements of a demanding course of
study with focus and discipline and your
reward is an excellent education.
Such an education is all the more important
today because of the need to respond
to a rapidly changing world. Within our
knowledge‑based society, many people
are engaged in ‘knowledge-based’ work,
across a range of fields and disciplines.
The achievement of high quality education
and training positions you to attain greater
prosperity and participate more fully in a
dynamic knowledge-based global economy.
Swinburne is consistently named as one of
the top universities in the world according
to the prestigious Academic Ranking of
World Universities. Therefore, I hope you take
pride in knowing that you graduate from
Swinburne with a high-quality education,
obtained from a world-ranked university.
I strongly encourage all of you who graduate
today to address the new challenges that
face your community and make a positive
contribution. I urge you to seize these
opportunities and help lead our society
into a promising future.
At Swinburne we encourage our students
to embrace the notion that we are all
learners for life. And so, I anticipate that your
graduation will not represent an end-point
to your educational adventures. We look
forward to welcoming you back to Swinburne
in the future, either in-person or through one
of many online learning opportunities, to help
you further your knowledge.
We are also delighted to welcome you as
Swinburne alumni and will take pride in
hearing of your achievements.
I sincerely wish you the very best for the
future and, wherever life adventures take
you, invite you to stay in touch with your
Swinburne community.
Linda Kristjanson
Vice-Chancellor and President

History of the university
The Swinburnes lived for many generations
in Northumberland, in the north of England.
In early times, the family owned a castle on
the banks of the Swin Burn, the brook of the
boars. By 1245 the Swinburne coat of arms
was ‘Gules: three boars heads argent’.
The arms
George Swinburne arrived in Melbourne in
1886, aged twenty-five. His early days in
Melbourne were spent setting up gas plants
and bringing gas-light to the cities and towns.
As his business stature increased, he entered
State Parliament and became a minister.
The crest
Swinburne was established as the Eastern
Suburbs Technical College by George
Swinburne and the first students were
enrolled in 1909, when classes began in
carpentry, plumbing and blacksmithing.
In 1913 the institution changed its name
to Swinburne Technical College, to
commemorate the Honourable George
Swinburne. Soon afterwards, a boys’ junior
technical school and the first girls’ technical
school were established.
The motto
Following an extensive reorganisation of
advanced education in Victoria in the late
1970s, Swinburne was given the power to
grant bachelor degrees. The first of these was
awarded at a conferring ceremony held on
21 May 1981 at the Camberwell Civic Centre.
In universities, a mace is used as a symbol
of institutional authority and it is carried
in procession before the Chancellor as
a symbolic weapon of protection. The
ceremonial items of the office of the
Chancellor of Swinburne University were
designed by Emeritus Professor Helmut
Lueckenhausen, former Pro Vice-Chancellor,
Internationalisation. Fabricated from
Queensland silky oak, sterling silver and gold,
the mace has eight facets resolving as an
open silver finial and crown which contains
a carving of the rampant boar from the
Swinburne coat of arms. The chair also has
eight divisions on the seat and back with an
engraved silver boar and the Southern Cross
on the upper back. Artists and craftspeople
involved in the project with the designer
were Ian Higgs, cabinet maker, Geoffrey
Dunne, Swinburne design graduate, Sue
Wraight, netsuke carver and Hendrik Forster
and Marion Marshall, silversmiths. Civic
contributions made towards the purchase
of these items included the former City of
Prahran for the University for the Mace, the
former City of Hawthorn for the Chancellor’s
Chair and the former Shire of Lillydale for the
Chancellor’s Gown.
In 1992, Swinburne achieved university
status with the passage by the Parliament
of Victoria of the Swinburne University
of Technology Act. This marked not only
Swinburne’s distinguished history as
a provider of further education, but the
beginning of a new period of growth and
innovation for Swinburne.
In recent years, Swinburne has progressed
to become one of the world’s leading
research‑intensive teaching universities and
a leader in online education, expanding the
educational opportunities available to a new
generation of learners.
Swinburne’s emphasis is on high-quality,
engaged teaching and research in science,
technology and innovation – teaching and
research that makes a difference in the lives
of individuals and contributes to national
economic and social objectives.
Swinburne holds a unique place among
educational institutions in Australia in the link
that persists between it and the founder and
his family. The conferring of a modification
of the family’s coat of arms preserves and
strengthens that link.

The basic colours of red and white, and
the cinquefoils charged on the shield,
commemorate the arms of the Swinburne
family.
The demi-Boar and the cinquefoil perpetuate
the Swinburne connection; the book is
symbolic of learning.
The College of Arms’ translation of the motto
is: Achievement through learning.
The flag
The basic colours of red and white with
cinquefoils.
The mace and the chair
Academic regalia
The academic dress worn at Swinburne
today is a modification of everyday dress
worn by scholars and teachers in the Middle
Ages and the Renaissance. It consists of a

to cover the head and shoulders to keep off
the rain and snow. Trencher caps or bonnets

The style of academic dress adopted by

Swinburne Research
Swinburne has consistently pursued a policy of ensuring quality
and critical mass by investing resources in areas of research
concentration. Swinburne actively encourages and values its
international and industry connections which enrich and enhance
the research efforts and careers of our academic staff and
students alike.
The graduates listed below have each made a valuable contribution
to Swinburne and their respective fields of research.
Graduates for awards from Swinburne Research will be
presented by the Pro Vice-Chancellor (Future Manufacturing),
Professor Geoffrey Brooks.
Md Shamsul Arefin
Thesis title: Fluid structure interaction (FSI) of the left ventricle (LV) in
developing the next generation ventricular assist device (VAD) system
The broad objective of Dr Arefin’s research was to apply innovative
engineering approaches to analyse the Left Ventricle (LV) of the
human heart in order to provide the underpinning knowledge required
to develop a “next generation” Ventricular Assist Device (VAD) using
wireless control. In doing so, the prime focus of this research was eyed
on the numerical investigations required to determine hemodynamic
parameters and the structural changes in an LV model. The Fluid
Structure Interaction (FSI) scheme was determined to be an appropriate
means of investigating and determining the functionalities of the LV.
All these numerical investigations provide useful insights on the LV in
various conditions and the data will be helpful in developing a next
generation VAD model.
Matthew James Davey
Thesis title: The performance of post-tensioned concrete wide band
beams at exterior column connections under seismic loading
Post-tensioned concrete wide band beams at exterior column
connections under seismic loading floor construction is very
common in Australia, despite a lack of research into how it performs
during earthquake events. The results of experiments and computer
modelling presented in Dr Davey’s thesis help to further understand
how these connections behave and how to achieve greater
performance under seismic loading.
Masoud Dehghan
Thesis title: Development of thermomechanically improved epoxy
adhesives using carbon nanotubes
Commercial adhesives are widely used with the purpose of
reinforcing aged/damaged civil structures. However, the existing
problem regarding the application of these systems is that at harsh
environmental conditions, such as elevated temperatures, and under
extended stress, the adhesive loses its functionality. This in turn
dramatically reduces the effectiveness of the strengthening systems
applied. In Dr Dehghan’s research work, a commercial adhesive was
developed with the aid of nanotechnology, with enhanced thermal and
mechanical properties. This adhesive offers substantial improvement
in the performance of the strengthening systems at ambient
temperature and maintains the system performance at elevated
environmental temperatures.
Dinh Van Tuan
Thesis title: Stochastic modelling for energy efficient
supercomputing clusters
Dr Dinh’s thesis studies mathematical stochastic modelling
frameworks to improve the energy efficiency in cluster computing
systems, which are facing the challenge of growing energy
consumption due to the fast-increased computing demand from
phenomenon such as Big Data or the Internet of Things. These
frameworks are developed with the reference to the analysis of
empirical data collected from real computing systems. This study is a
contribution to the engineering effort to make the modern information
and communication technology infrastructure more sustainable.
Gediminas Gervinskas
Thesis title: Sensing platforms: nano-fabrication, characterisation
and integration
Dr Gervinskas’s research was conducted on a development and
optimisation of an optofluidic sensor. In a “constantly shrinking” world,
optofluidics combines the advancements, in the fields of optics and
microfluidics, into a still evolving area, whose main objectives are
element miniaturisation and cost efficiency. A microfluidic platform
was developed, to minimize the need of liquid quantities used for
analysis on in-the-chip integrated optical sensor. The optical sensor
itself was designed and fabricated with the goal to increase the signal
detection sensitivity and reduce its footprint by exploiting the novel
ideas and nanofabrication techniques in the field of plasmonics.
Md Fahad Hasan
Thesis title: Microstructures and properties of plasma sprayed and
sol-gel modified hydroxyapatite coatings
Thermal spray hydroxyapatite coatings have been widely used for
bone and hip replacements due to its good biocompatibility and
bioactivity and similar properties like bone. But the mechanical
properties of the coatings are very weak. As a result, a rigorous
mechanical properties analysis has been completed and then thermal
spray coatings have been modified by sol-gel coatings to improve the
coatings properties for biomedical applications in Dr Hasan’s thesis.

Atul Kamboj
Remya Mathew
Thesis title: Molecular studies of abiotic stress and abscisic acid
mediated stress response pathway in barley
Thesis title: Thermal modification of 55% aluminium-zinc-silicon
coatings
The plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA) is crucial for plant’s adaptive
response to salinity and drought stresses. ABA accumulates in plant
cells to protect vegetative tissues and regulates developmental
events. ABA signalling pathway is well established in Arabidopsis,
but is poorly defined in the major cereal crops, wheat and barley.
Dr Kamboj’s study identified and characterised barley ABA mediated
abiotic stress signalling related genes. It also assessed the salt
tolerance levels of sixteen barley varieties by key physiological assays.
The study provides insights into genome-wide effects of salinity
and drought stresses and is a new resource for the study of gene
regulation in barley.
Dr Mathew’s work was a collaborative project between Swinburne
University, BlueScope Steel and CAST CRC. The main aim of the
project work was to investigate the possibility of refining thin
aluminum-zinc-silicon coatings by a method called rapid thermal
processing. The results showed that ultra-refined coatings can be
obtained by processing using high power lasers. It is expected that
these refined coatings will improve corrosion resistance of coated
steel sheets. The results obtained from this project can be used
as a guide for thermal modification of thin coatings on thin steel
substrates.
Prince Kurumthodathu Surendran
Thesis title: Engineering characterisation of construction and
demolition materials reinforced with geogrids in pavement
applications
Thesis title: Bose-Einstein condensation in a magnetic lattice
Dr Kurumthodathu Surendran’s thesis reports the realisation of
Bose‑Einstein condensation (BEC) of 87Rb F = 1 atoms in multiple
sites of a one-dimensional 10m-period magnetic lattice. The
magnetic micro traps are created by a perpendicularly magnetised,
multi‑layered structure of TbGdFeCo film integrated on to an atom
chip, together with uniform bias magnetic fields. Clear signatures
for the onset of quantum degeneracy in multiple sites of
the magnetic lattice are provided by in-situ site-resolved
radio‑frequency spectroscopy.
Md Aminur Rahman
Dr Rahman’s study describes the utilization of construction
and demolition materials reinforced with geogrid in pavement
applications. In addition, this research also investigates the shear
strength; resilient modulus; permanent deformation and infiltration
capacity and pollutants removal efficiencies of construction and
demolition materials.
Mehdi Soodi
Thesis title: An investigation of properties of FGM and wafer
structures produced with laser direct metal deposition
Le Vu Hoang
Thesis title: Generation and application of coherent extreme
ultraviolet radiation
Dr Le’s thesis presents the generation of coherent extreme ultraviolet
radiation through the frequency up-conversion of a visible laser in a
gas medium. This source is used to study the structure of the atoms
in the gas, as well as to further develop new microscopy imaging
techniques. Using the coherent diffractive imaging method with a
30 nanometre light source, an image of the sample can be resolved
with a resolution down to 45 nanometres.
Muhammad Rakib Mansur
Thesis title: Deposition and characterisation of a coating from
calcium phosphate and titanium alloy on austenitic stainless steel
Composite coatings made of titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) and
hydroxyapatite (HA) can enhance the corrosion resistance of austenitic
stainless steel used for prosthetic applications. Different techniques
have already been adopted to produce pure HA or composite coatings
on different substrates for biomedical applications. Dr Mansur’s
research yielded deposition of composite coatings and material from
HA and Ti-6Al-4V on austenitic stainless steel by using laser‑assisted
deposition technique. The study incorporates microstructural,
chemical and mechanical characterisation of the developed composite
coating. The research also covers temperature and cooling rate
determination for the relationship establishment between different
microstructural and mechanical parameters with those two.
Existing range of metallic alloys and structures possess a series
of physical and mechanical properties that deem them useful or
unusable in certain applications or environments. A solution to the
cases where metallic alloys lack specific properties and therefore
cannot function satisfactorily is to develop new innovative materials
which possess the desired characteristics. These characteristics
may include tailored mechanical, thermal and functional properties.
In Dr Soodi’s research Laser Direct Metal Deposition technique was
used to create such innovative metallic structures to overcome some
limitations of existing alloys. Laser assisted direct metal deposition
offers endless opportunities to create innovative structures to further
improve material performance and characteristics. The results offer
a series of solution as well as pathways for development of further
structures.
Adam Bennett Taylor
Thesis title: The photo thermal reshaping mechanism of gold
nanorods, with applications in rod alignment and optical data storage
Gold nanorods are an important class of plasmonic nano-materials,
with applications in photo thermal cancer treatment, solar power and
optical data storage. For these applications, it is extremely important
to understand their thermal stability under heating. Dr Taylor’s work
provides the first insight into the details of the effect of shape and
temperature on thermal stability, to reveal curvature driven surface
diffusion as the main cause of reshaping, occurring 800°C below
the traditional melting point. These findings were then used to
demonstrate nanorod alignment, and many-layer optical data
storage, and will have a significant impact on the design future
of plasmonic devices.

Thesis title: Outcomes of isolated and multiple persistent regulatory
problems at age 24 months: follow-up of the Baby Business
Randomised Controlled Trial
Graduates for awards from Swinburne Research will be presented
by the Pro Vice-Chancellor (Research Capacity), Professor Min Gu.
Doctor of Psychology (Clinical Psychology)
503 families reported on their infant’s regulatory problems including
crying, sleeping and feeding behaviours across the first two years
of life. Dr Tobin’s study found that 46% of infants had one or more
persistent regulatory problems, and these problems were associated
with poorer child, parent and family functioning. Outcomes were
poorer when children had multiple problems. The findings indicate
that such problems are common, and it is essential for health
practitioners to enquire about infant regulatory problems, as well as
parent and family wellbeing, at repeated encounters across the first
two years of life.
Emma Louise Butler
Danielle Cecilia Williamson
Thesis title: Mindfulness-based intervention for primary school
aged children
Thesis title: Analysis of the temporal model of perceived control in
response to an imagined traumatic event
Dr Butler’s study adapted and piloted a mindfulness-based cognitive
therapy program for adults for nine disadvantaged children. A refined
mindfulness intervention was then evaluated in a partially randomised
controlled trial with 76 children aged between eight and 12 years.
Children who underwent the mindfulness intervention showed
superior improvements for anxiety, depression, inattention, and low
self-esteem compared to a wellbeing program. Improvements to
self-esteem were also superior compared to a widely used relaxation
treatment. The study supports the utility of mindfulness as a
treatment to improve the mental health of disadvantaged children.
Dr Williamson’s thesis applied a theory of meaning-making developed
in the context of traumatic or stressful life events, the Temporal Model
of Perceived Control (TMPC), to a new context – that of an imagined
traumatic event. The TMPC proposes that meaning-making has a
temporal dimension (it can focus on the past, present or future) and
that this orientation is linked to psychological outcomes. The study
explored whether these orientations are pre-existing biases and
the linkages they have to other psychological characteristics. The
results demonstrated that present control was the most robust of the
orientations, and that it had significant negative relationships with
Ambivalent Attachment Type and Neuroticism, and significant positive
relationships with Optimism and Male gender. These findings are
applicable to clinical practice in supporting interventions that enhance
a present control focus.
Shelley Ada Connell
Thesis title: An investigation of stressful situations in the workplace:
the appraisal of and response to workplace bullying, workplace
aggression and similar situations
Dr Connell’s research project consisted of five concurrent studies
analysing the same set of quantitative and qualitative data gathered
from 89 participants about their experiences in the workplace.
Important findings included individual differences in the way people
defined workplace bullying and in the impacts of stressful situations.
Workplace experiences such as bullying could be experienced as
traumatic and could also lead to posttraumatic growth. Post-traumatic
growth, positive self-transformation arising from a difficult life
experience, was found to be linked to a thorough exploration of the
impact of the event as well as a positive ending to the story.

Thesis title: The Percussive Audio Lexicon: an approach to describing
the features of percussion instruments and the sounds they produce
Thesis title: Playing with journalism: gaming technology in
investigative journalism education
Dr Aayeshah explored the contemporary trends in investigative
journalism practice and academia. She examined the use of
Alternate Reality Games (ARGs) for investigative journalism education.
The research involved designing, testing and evaluating an ARG that
included real-life investigation by journalism students. The study
found ARG to be a useful and efficient educational resource due to
its flexibility and authentic learning experience.
Ali Mohammad Hadi AL-Asadi
Thesis title: Data mining in psychological research: the application of
statistical and data mining techniques to the anxiety online platform
Dr AL-Asadi’s research applied advanced data mining techniques to
the Anxiety Online Platform to investigate pre-treatment-assessment,
during-treatment, and post-treatment-assessment attritions and
predictors, the efficacy of online therapy, and multiple and structural
comorbidities. Results help with developing methods for improving
engagement with online interventions, and provide for more efficient
assessment. Establishing the efficacy of online intervention and
the trans-diagnostic and trans-treatment applications will have a
significant impact on online intervention programs. Establishing
multiple comorbidities and comorbidity structure of 21 psychological
disorders and their relationships with psycho-social variables using
online assessment is a new area that will have a significant impact
on treatment outcomes.
In music, the diversity of percussion instruments and the sounds they
make is immense. There are millions of recordings in sound libraries,
cataloguing the sounds of thousands of different instruments. Finding
ways to effectively describe and label all of them is challenging.
Dr Bell’s Percussive Audio Lexicon (PAL) provides a comprehensive
and uniform vocabulary of over 2,500 words and phrases, which
users and creators of sound libraries can use to label and catalogue
percussive sounds and instruments. It can also function as a tool for
teaching music students about percussion. It is the only system of its

Thesis title: Key factors and forces that shaped the baby-boomer
generation of ethnic Chinese entrepreneurship in Australia
Dr Chow studied and developed a framework aimed at better
understanding the baby-boomer generation of ethnic Chinese
business entrepreneurship in Australia. The tri-cluster model
that emerged from the research has been recognised as a key
contribution to academic knowledge for those seeking to understand
ethnic Chinese business entrepreneurs in Australia. It is useful and
applicable for further relevant research. the tri-cluster model is also a
useful tool in practical business dealing with ethnic Chinese business
entrepreneurs, particularly in an era where a heavy emphasis is
placed on improving business ties with Asian countries.

Thesis title: Fengshui as a narrative of localisation: case studies of
contemporary architecture in Hong Kong and Shanghai
Craig John Austin
Thesis title: Design thinking: expanding the frame of reference. A study
of concepts, ideas and thinking tools developed by Edward de Bono
that have potential for application within a design process and design
thinking framework
Dr Austin’s research focuses on design’s ability to bring imaginable
worlds out of non-existence into existence and investigates thinking
behaviours referred to as design thinking. Underpinning the research
is a biological model for the way the brain functions developed by
Edward de Bono and the research question asks: can design thinking
be enriched with some of de Bono’s ideas in order to make the
thinking and the process more effective and can some of these ideas
be diagrammatically represented? An outcome of the project is the
development of a graphic visualisation of a four-stage design process
and design thinking schema.
Chinese fengshui evolved from a classical tradition aimed at achieving
harmony within the environment. However, case studies and
fieldwork undertaken in Dr Day’s thesis reveal that in contemporary
architecture, fengshui is often used as a Chinese localisation device
in a significant departure from classical practice. This thesis analyses
examples of Chinese cultural identification within transnational
architecture in Hong Kong and Shanghai, during the 20th and early
21st centuries. The outcome provides architects and urban designers
with a new perspective on the contemporary use of fengshui in China.

Samuel Keith Duncan
Dustin Raffaele Halse
Thesis title: How the play element has changed in Australian football
and the consequences of this change on the community
Thesis title: From servants to citizens: a history of Victorian Public
Service Unionism, 1885–1946
Dr Duncan’s thesis is a theoretical analysis of the importance of
the play element in developing communities and culture, using the
Australian Football League (AFL) as a case study. Using the historical
observations of Johan Huizinga and combining them with Pierre
Bourdieu’s concepts of fields and capital, a theoretical framework
was created to illuminate the important role of play in creating
communities. By developing this theory and applying it to the AFL,
the analysis highlighted how the media and economic fields have
transformed ‘play’ into ‘display’, which has changed the way AFL
supporters relate to the game and subsequently weakened the AFL
community.
Dr Halse’s project traces the history of Victorian departmental public
service unionism from 1885 to 1946. The central argument of this
history is that Victorian public service unionists, with the aid of the
public service union, challenged the theoretical and practical
limitations placed upon their political and industrial citizenship.
Public servants have commonly been treated as a residual class in
both Marxist and non-Marxist labour history writings. This project
therefore fills an obvious lacuna in Australian trade union historiography.
Bradley John Elphinstone
Thesis title: Investigating cognitive and ontological factors
underlying the adherence to normative materialistic values and
their influence on wellbeing
The results of Dr Elphinstone’s research indicated that people
who have a holistic, ‘big picture’ way of looking at the world, in
combination with a complex, elaborative thinking style, place less
importance on goals and aspirations associated with ‘keeping up
with the Joneses’ and are less materialistic. These people are also
motivated by meaningful, self-directed reasons rather than striving
to impress others, and subsequently report greater self-esteem,
self-actualisation, and psychological wellbeing. The application of
these findings can have a positive impact on mental health and the
environment, through reducing extrinsically-motivated consumption.
Judith Elizabeth Glover
Thesis title: Taboo to mainstream: an industrial design solution
to sex toy production
Sex toys are rarely a topic for academic consideration let alone
a doctoral thesis. They generally remain hidden and anonymous
products poorly conceived and designed made of unsafe materials
produced by the pornography industry with outdated views on female
sexuality and gender. Yet sexuality and sexual practice is central to
human wellbeing. Dr Glover’s thesis challenges the notions of such
products as taboo and unworthy of consideration by the design
disciplines. This thesis addresses both the technical considerations
and socio-sexual behaviour and belief systems that prevent this
product genre being considered mainstream product design and
provides an exemplar of how design culture, process and methods
can align the industry with contemporary female consumers.

Russell John Kennedy
Thesis title: Designing with indigenous knowledge: policy and
protocols for respectful and authentic cross-cultural representation
in communication design practice
Set within the frame of proposed indigenous recognition in the
Australian Constitution, Dr Kennedy’s research asserts the need for
informed understanding of how to appropriately represent indigenous
culture and to its broader relationship with the Australian national
identity. It explores the notion of knowledge sharing and investigates
methods to improve the quality of Indigenous graphical representation
in communication design practice. The research asks: what are the
protocols required for practitioners working on projects involving
the visual representation of indigenous knowledge and culture? The
findings outline a cognitive strategy based on respectful engagement
processes, cultural protocols and Indigenous-led collaboration.
Jonathan Albert O’Hara
Thesis title: Willingness to engage in relationship problem discussion:
predictors and consequences of partner asymmetry
Dr O’Hara’s research investigated factors that influence relationship
partner’s willingness to engage in relationship problem discussion.
Findings revealed that for males, greater belief in their own capability
for change was related to less willingness to engage in relationship
problem discussion. Conversely, male’s greater belief in their female
partner’s capability for change was related to greater willingness to
engage in relationship problem discussion. Findings also revealed that
increased vulnerability to overwhelming physiological arousal during
conflict was related to lower willingness to engage in relationship
problem discussion for both male and female partners.
Michaela Celeste Pascoe
Thesis title: Molecular mechanisms and nutritional factors influencing
post-stroke affective disorders
Dr Pascoe’s thesis studied the biological mechanisms underlying
stroke-related affective symptomatology, depressive disorder, anxiety
and hyperactive delirium. The hypothesis that stroke-associated
degeneration of cellular networks is linked to stroke-associated
behavioural and affective disorders was explored. The effects of
polyunsaturated-fatty-acids and homocysteine, capable of mediating
cellular-degeneration, in the aetiology stroke-associated affective
symptomatology, were additionally studied. The findings suggest
that stroke-induced cell-death is associated with the presentation
of depressive, anxious and hyperactive symptomatology, and that
nutritional factors which influence the processes of cell-death, may
also influence these behavioural outcomes. However, a possible
detrimental effect of nutritional supplementation, on risk of bleeding,
was identified.
Madihah Sheikh Abdul Aziz
Thesis title: DACADE: a systematic data collection and analysis tool
Dr Madihah’s study investigates a lack of systematic data collection
and analysis skills among design students, and attempts to solve the
problem of a lack of such knowledge. This was done by designing,
developing and evaluating a software tool that uses visual data
collection and analysis techniques to help students understand the
merits of systematic data collection of consumer performance and
opinion, and carry out well-designed user tests to produce successful
products. The thesis addresses several theoretical implications
concerning the transfer of learning, the appropriateness of graphics
used, and user motivation in a learning environment. It also proposed
future studies.
Svjetlana Vukusic
Thesis title: Social and emotional processing in the broader
autism phenotype
The aim of Dr Vukusic’s thesis was to examine social-emotional
processing in typically developing individuals with high and
low autistic traits, by using electroencephalography and
magnetoencephalography. A subsidiary aim was to gain information
about the relation between genetics and socio-emotional processing
within autism through examination of first-degree relatives of people
with autism. Results showed that people with high autistic traits and
also parents and adult siblings of people with autism have some
similarities with autism in processing of socio-emotional information.
Results provide a new insight into emotion processing and autism
and shows importance of looking at autism as genetic disorder.

Honorary Doctor of Laws
The Honourable Alan H Goldberg AO QC
The Honourable Alan Goldberg AO QC has
had a distinguished career in the law, and
the protection of civil liberties. He has served
the legal profession, legal education, the arts
and the Jewish community generously, and
was instrumental in the successful founding
of Swinburne University of Technology’s
Law School.
Mr Goldberg was called to the Victorian Bar
in 1965 and was appointed Queen’s Counsel
in 1978. He practised widely in commercial,
corporate, administrative and competition
law. After a successful career as a barrister,
he was appointed a Judge of the Federal
Court of Australia in February 1997 and,
subsequently, President of the Australian
Competition Tribunal in 2003. He was
Deputy Chairman of the committee advising
the Victorian Attorney-General on Racial
Vilification, and has been a member and
President of the Victorian Council for
Civil Liberties (now Liberty Victoria).
Mr Goldberg has held numerous important
roles in the Jewish community. From 1984
to 1997 he was a member of the Executive
Council of Australian Jewry, holding portfolios
in anti-defamation, legal affairs and public
relations. In 1988 he was appointed Chairman
of the Victorian Jewish Board of Deputies.
He has been President of the Melbourne
Hebrew Congregation, Chairman of the
Mt Scopus Memorial College School Council
and a Trustee of the Montefiore Homes for
the Aged Foundation.
Mr Goldberg has been active serving the arts
in Victoria. He has been a member, Trustee
and Director of the Melbourne Symphony
Orchestra – a position he occupied for 13
years. For his service to the Orchestra he was
awarded Life Membership in 2013. Among
other roles in the arts, he has been a Director
of the Tarrawarra Museum of Modern Art
since 2001.
30
For his service to the judiciary, particularly
in the areas of competition, law and equity,
to the community as a contributor to debate
on human rights and civil liberties, and as a
supporter of the arts, he was appointed an
Officer in the Order of Australia (AO) in 2005.
Mr Goldberg has long been involved in legal
education, has lectured in law schools and
has been a member of the Victorian Council
of Legal Education, the Australian Legal
Education Council and a representative on
the Board of Examiners for admission to
legal practice.
In 2014, Mr Goldberg agreed to serve as
chair of the committee to advise Swinburne
University of Technology in its application
to the Council of Legal Education to accredit
Swinburne Law School to offer a Bachelor of
Laws that fulfils the academic requirements
of practising law in Victoria. As a direct
result of his efforts, the Chief Justice of
the Supreme Court of Victoria launched
Swinburne Law School and welcomed the
inaugural class of Bachelor of Laws students
in February 2015.
Mr Goldberg’s significant contributions are
most aptly recognised through this Honorary
Doctorate of Laws.

students alike.
Graduates for awards from Swinburne Research will be presented
by the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research and Development,
Professor Aleksandar Subic.
Thesis title: Social integration and life and job satisfaction:
the case of Sri Lankan and Indian skilled migrants in Australia
Dr Gunasekara ‘s research investigated the extent to which
Sri Lankan and Indian skilled migrants are socially integrated
into Australian society and their level of life and job satisfaction.
The survey results suggested that participants are socially integrated
and satisfied with their jobs at a moderate level, and highly satisfied
with their life in Australia. The results also indicated that social
integration influences their level of life and job satisfaction. Findings
suggest that there is a need to focus on developing and implementing
policies that encourage supportive and inclusive behaviours towards
skilled migrants at the societal and organisational level.
Shamsun Nahar
Thesis title: Risk disclosure practices: their determinants and

Subhash Appanna
Thesis title: Public sector reforms in Fiji: a search for appropriate
governance structures
Dr Appanna’s research aimed to explore and critically examine the
reasons why, despite the purported presence of many of New Public
Management’s pre-requisites, public sector reforms have had limited
success in Fiji. The research found that the New Public Management
model has inherent problems that render it of limited use value in
a traditional Pacific Island context like Fiji. It proposes that any new
(or modified) proposals for governance in the public sector reform
process will need to consider the unique characteristics of the Fiji
context. Public policy makers, practitioners and scholars should find
this research of great value.
Christopher Taylor Bilney
Thesis title: Public sector cultural change: an auto ethnography
of a street level bureaucrat
Employing auto ethnography, Dr Bilney’s thesis examines employee
reactions to organisational change and how these alter over time.
Dr Bilney made use of his long term experience in the public sector
to examine his perceptions of and reactions to change, noting that
longer term employees perceive and deal with organisational
change in different ways to shorter term employees. The thesis
refines extant change management models, informs managers of
employee perceptions and reactions and assists them to tailor their
management of change to suit individuals thus facilitating a smoother
and more effective change experience.
In an attempt to redress in part the empirical scarcity in risk
disclosure studies in developing countries, Dr Nahar’s study is the
first to provide knowledge of corporate risk disclosure practices,
their determinants and firm performance. The study fills a gap
in the literature by providing a comprehensive and longitudinal
study of corporate risk disclosure information in banks’ annual
reports in Bangladesh. The Risk Disclosure Index, developed in this
study, contributes to the literature by quantifying the extent of risk
disclosure and identifying the factors determining them. Stakeholders,
particularly depositors and investors, can use this Index in selecting
their bank of interest.
Khayri Omar
Thesis title: The public value of Gov 2.0: the case of Victorian local
government, Australia
Dr. Khayri’s doctoral studies focussed on the creation of public value
through the government use of social media platforms (Gov 2.0).
He developed a method of evaluating the return on investments by
implementing these technologies in the public sector. His findings
contribute to clarify the value of investing in these new technologies
for both academic and public sector areas. This contribution provides
a clear understanding of the value of Gov 2.0, value for whom, by
whom and how it is created and evaluated.
Janine Fay Pickering
Thesis title: Gender dynamics in the management of commercial and
public biotechnology organisations
Data from 30 Australian biotech organisations reveal no significant
difference in pay or responsibilities between male and female
managers in the commercial sector. By comparison, academic biotech
is characterised by vertical segregation with female managers
concentrated in lower level management positions. Dr Pickering’s
interviews suggest the organisation of work and career advancement
opportunities in commercial biotech are more accommodating of
working mothers, an outcome that is primarily productivity-driven.
This suggests public biotech organisations seeking to improve gender
equity should re-examine how productivity is defined and evaluated,
rather than focusing on ‘family friendly’ policies to accommodate
women in existing patterns of work.
