About the session

An informal networking session for doctoral students   Remaining part of a connected scholarly community can be difficult when you are researching remotely and independently.   This is an opportunity to meet informally with your fellow students to update each other on your respective projects, to share progress and success, and discuss the challenges and barriers you are encountering.

Key learning outcomes 

  • Establish, develop and improve relationships with colleagues for mutual support.
  • Gain a greater understanding of what constitutes doctoral research in other academic disciplines.
  • Be able to concisely present your own research to non-specialists.

Facilitators

Dr Alistair Beecher, Co-Director of the Graduate School and a part-time Departmental Lecturer at Oxford Lifelong Learning, University of Oxford.

 

Dr Joanna Bagniewska, Departmental Lecturer in the Graduate School and Co-Director of the Postgraduate Certificate in Ecological Survey Techniques at Oxford Lifelong Learning, University of Oxford
