PGR Event PHD By Published Work – 20th October 2016 1-3pm

 

PhD By Published Work Workshop

Thursday 20th October, Cadman Conference Room

1-3 p.m.

 

The PhD by Published Work Workshop is an alternate route to a research degree for people who already have a research career. This workshop will be an introduction to the principles and procedures, and will be of interest to anyone thinking this route might be for them, or know of a research colleague whom the route might benefit. Note also that the PhD by Published work regulations here at the University are scheduled to be reviewed, so we welcome attendees who have experience in this area, and can thus give us feedback that aides the crafting of the new set of regulations.

 

Please book on Iris if you intend to attend (under events/training) or email graduateschool@staffs.uk or simply drop in on the day.
