Thesis Forum - The APG Review

The thesis forum returns for the spring!

Come along and meet researchers from all disciplines and all stages of the PhD. The March session will focus on the Advanced Postgraduate (APG) upgrade and we will hear from three researchers who successfully passed. There will also be the chance to find out more about Leicester’s very own research magazine "Frontier", and plenty of time for informal discussion.

The forum is not a training session for those preparing for their APG review - more an opportunity to hear from those who've completed the review and will be sharing their experiences to help you get a better feel of what to expect.

For the first time, off-campus students will also be able to participate in the thesis forum. You simply need to click this link on 19th March from 3pm (GMT) to take part. You will be able to see and hear the speakers plus put your own questions to them.

The forum starts at 3.30pm - but off-campus research students are encouraged to log on from 3pm so we can check your settings. To take part in the webinar, please follow the webinar instructions.

Speakers

  • John Coxon (Physics)
  • Pete Hague (Astrophysics)
  • Nate Owen (Education)

If you would like to attend please email Helen - hs231@le.ac.uk

Future sessions will take place on 14th May and 18th June. Details to follow soon.

Look forward to seeing you there!
