What Training is Available as an ESRC DTP Student in Michaelmas 2020?
Welcome!
There is a wide range of training available to you as a doctoral student. Below are the main websites where training is offered in the University. Please note that for most of this you need to book through an online service but the main providers are listed below. As a DTP student you will be asked to attend a Training and Engagement Day each term at which you will get to meet each other and develop your skills. I look forward to meeting you there but in the meantime please drop me a line if you have any questions about training - and don't forget to follow us on Twitter!
