ollege would like to present the December monthly update
This monthly update is for PGRs and their supervisors to outline upcoming research skills and development opportunities including events, workshops and networking opportunities supported by the Doctoral College. In this update we would like to introduce the inaugural 3 Minute Thesis (3MT®) event, R.E.D talks, the Researcher Development Programme for 2017-18 (January to July sessions now bookable), and the 10th Annual Postgraduate Conference.
We are very happy to announce that our Keynote Speaker for the 10th Annual Postgraduate Conference is Professor Lee Miles from the BU’s Disaster Management Centre. With the deadline soon approaching, don’t forget to submit an application for oral, poster and photography presentations to present your research to your peers and colleagues.
These exciting development opportunities are taking place now so check out our application processes and booking information to advance your current skills, knowledge and networks.
