The Graduate School’s transferable skills development programme for 2023-24 is currently under construction in the Gateway Calendar. It is being populated in the next month with new, and repeated, workshops and webinars. Please keep checking back, it’s a work in progress as we confirm dates with facilitators!

Every fortnight we will be sending out the Graduate School Newsletter to PGR and Supervisor UON email addresses (northampton.ac.uk) and a newsletter is due today and every fortnight from now on. In the newsletter you will find a summary of upcoming webinars and workshops, news, transfer seminars, support, services and events to go to, plus Graduate School notices. Please do take a few minutes to read it to keep yourself up to date. If you are a PGR, please do consider taking time to engage with workshops and events at UON – the skills you will learn will be useful for your doctorate and may also be transferable skills for your future career. Meeting and talking to other PGRs, either online or face to face, can also be very helpful for overcoming feelings of isolation. If you are a PGR student and would like to talk to someone about the upcoming academic year please get in touch graduateschool@northampton.ac.uk. The Graduate School are here to support as well as provide development, monitoring and procedure.
