The Bristol Doctoral College warmly invites all postgraduate research students who have started their research degree since October 2018 to our special Spring Researcher Inauguration event on Wednesday, 13 February from 5:30 to 7pm.

Bristol’s outstanding research profile is underpinned by the contribution of our postgraduate researchers. This special event is an opportunity to celebrate the start of your research degree and find out about the opportunities available to you throughout your time as a PGR student.

You’ll receive a welcome from Dr. Terry McMaster, Director of the Bristol Doctoral College, and hear from current researchers about how best to make the most of your time here at Bristol. You will also receive a complimentary University of Bristol scarf!

Bristol's culture of innovation, outstanding facilities and unique opportunities will help you achieve your research ambitions. However, it is also our rich and vibrant research community that makes our University a special place to do your research. This event will introduce you to this multidisciplinary community and enable you to become part of it.

There will be refreshments and canapés provided, and an opportunity to meet with your fellow research community. Research supervisors are also invited to attend.
