PGR student induction: Making the most of the library
Thank you to all the new research students who worked so hard in today’s session in the library.
Given how many tools we covered in the morning, I thought it might be helpful to provide a list of these, with links, so you can revisit them later at your leisure. You’ll see that there are a few extra tools that were mentioned today but not explored.
We started by looking at university and external resources:
Warm welcome to 28 new research degree students
The Graduate School welcomed 28 new Research Degree Students to the University last week with a four-day Induction Programme. Seven students from Science, six from Business, five from the Arts, four from both Social Sciences and Education and two students from Health gathered together for almost a week of workshops, meetings, discussions and introductions at the start of their doctorate.
Volunteers needed for Research Student Induction
Are you a Postgraduate Research Student at the University of Northampton? The Graduate School are looking for volunteers to participate in the PGR Induction day 4, which will be held on Thursday 3rd April at 2.30pm in MY120, Avenue Research Centre, Avenue Campus.
“Interviews with Current Research Students” is an informal ’round the table’ small group session, where our new students can ask current students any questions they like, learning what it’s like to study a research degree here at Northampton.
Whether you’re a fairly new starter or have been here a while, a part-time or full time student, your input would be really valuable. After the session we will close the Induction with a short social event and you’re invited to stay and enjoy some refreshments with us.
Please contact Simone.apel@northampton.ac.uk as soon as possible if you are interested in participating.
