Researcher Development for PGRs
Introducing PGR Development
'Researcher Development' is the term for the broad spectrum of opportunities, experiences, conversations and reflective work that you do, alongside your research, to enrich your skills and working relationships, foster your talents, and accelerate your professional prospects.
The University of Glasgow's multi-disciplinary Start here for new PGRs offer a wide range of opportunities including induction events, standalone workshops, mentoring, peer networks, communities, conferences, internships, writing festivals, and programmes to develop you as a researcher and a future research leader. We aim to support you to reflect on your needs and ambitions, navigate the ecology of development available to you at UofG and, have agency to make informed and active choices about your professional and career development.
