Enrolment for Mandatory Courses 

You can enrol on any mandatory courses via Moodle. 

Follow the link in the course description, or find the course using the Moodle search bar.

Enrolment for Optional Courses 

You can enrol for any optional courses via MyCampus (unless otherwise stated in the course description). To enrol on a course on MyCampus:

1. Login to the MyGlasgow Student Portal.
2. Under My Courses and Records, click 'My Student Centre' > 'Enrollment' > 'Add by Search'
3. Under 'Class Search', in the 'Catalogue Number' box, enter the 4-digit catalogue number (e.g. 6802) without any letters.
4. In the 'Course Career' box, select 'Postgraduate Research'. 
5. Select the session on which you wish to enrol and click 'Next'.
6. Select your preferred Course and Date, which will be added to 'My Choices'.
7. Click on the 'My Choices' tab and select the course again in the table view. Click 'Enrol' and then 'Finish Enrolling'.

If this is a multi-day course, you must be available to attend all days.

Please note that in order to encourage active learning and protect participant privacy and trainer livelihoods, training is generally NOT recorded. Researchers are welcome to review the course materials, which are stored on the Researcher Development Moodle.

On-campus courses will generally be in the ARC Researcher Development Suite (Room 226-227) and online ones on the Zoom platform. This information should be provided in the event description on the course calendar.

If you are unsure, you will find the venue or webinar link for any courses booked via MyCampus in your UofG Life App calendar. It takes up to 24 hours from booking a course for it to come through to your timetable, so we recommend enrolling early. 

You can also:

1. Login to the MyGlasgow Student Portal.
2. Under 'My Courses and Records', click 'My Timetable'.
3. Login when prompted.
4. At the bottom of the screen, click 'Timetable' and navigate to the date of your chosen training course.
5. Click on the event in the calendar to see more information.

For webinars you will need a screen and computer audio (headphones or speakers). It is best to log in through your university Zoom account. Arrive early to make sure the software is working, and give your full name and GUID number so that your attendance can be correctly recorded. 

If you need to cancel your place, please give as much notice as possible so we can ensure your place is allocated to another student. Except in the case of illness or emergency, we require (at minimum) 2 working days' notice. We would prefer at least two weeks!

Failure to provide minimum notice will result in your student record showing non-attendance and your School/Supervisor will be informed as part of the annual progress review. 

You can cancel any courses booked via MyCampus via the 'Drop Courses' option.

1. Login to the MyGlasgow Student Portal.
2. Under My Courses and Records, click 'My Student Centre' > 'Enrollment' > 'Drop Courses'.
3. Select the course(s) you wish to drop.
4. Click 'Drop Selected Courses' and then 'Finish Dropping'.
5. You will then be unenrolled from the selected courses.

In case of illness or emergency, you should register this via the 'My Absence' function on 'MyCampus' > 'Enrollment'. This will then be recorded as an absence on your student record. 

One-to-one appointments can be booked with our Postgraduate Writing Adviser, Dr Jennifer Boyle (jennifer.boyle@glasgow.ac.uk) and our Researcher Careers Manager, Katrina Gardner (katrina.gardner@glasgow.ac.uk) using the appointment booking system found on your MyGlasgow homepage/dashboard (GUID required).
