Postgraduate research opportunities
Our postgraduate research students develop a multidisciplinary skillset that is fully transferable to future employment in academia and public, private and third sector organisations. Their development is supported by a programme of high-quality internal training, a dedicated multidisciplinary pool of supervisors, and exposure to our extensive network of national and global research projects and colleagues. They also have access to researcher training programmes in the College of Medical, Veterinary and Life Sciences and College of Social Sciences. Our students’ research often results in high quality scientific publications and conference presentations.

It's a flexible, welcoming workspace specifically designed with postgraduate students in mind.
