Carolyn Holbrook
Research Fellow, Faculty of Arts / Politics and International Relations
How long have you worked at Monash?
Since January 2014.
What do you like best about your role?
Learning new things that help me to understand the bigger picture of Australian history – it's like putting together the pieces of a massive jigsaw puzzle.
Why did you choose your current career path?
A love of learning, research and writing. I also enjoy the independence of the academic life.
What interesting project have you worked on and what did it involve?
I am working with Professor James Walter on a history of how policy is made in Australia. We hope to produce some constructive suggestions about how good public policy is made.
