Postgraduate webinar series
This programme of webinars co-organised with the Society's Postgraduate Forum is for postgraduate geographers, particularly PhD students. Its purpose is to offer insights into different aspects of PhD life and to equip students with the skills to thrive during and after their doctoral programmes.
Each 50-minute session will include time for questions and discussion. Topics will range from publishing, to applying for grants, to presenting at conferences, to careers within and beyond academia. Whether you’re at the start or end of your PhD journey, there’ll be something for you.
