PGR Initiatives

The Hunterian is collaborating with the College of Arts to devise a new PGR programme for Public Engagement for piloting in 2011-12.

This experimental programme will invite PGR students to join The Hunterian as ‘PGR Associates’ with a view to them contributing and participating in our public programme. Students will develop object-centred or themed studies relating to their individual research interests and engage in a range of public outreach activity, from gallery tours to web pages and blogs.

Drawing on their research, PGR students will also be asked to contribute to the regular weekly Insight Gallery Talks. If successful it is intended to roll the programme out University-wide.  An induction seminar for interested PGR students will be held in early November.
