Your Doctoral College newsletter
If you’re new to Warwick this year, here’s an introduction to the Doctoral College. We look after all postgraduate researchers (PGRs) at Warwick. We sit separately from your department and faculty but work really closely with them to help deliver the best PGR experience possible, including supporting you to develop your professional skills.
We will be keeping you up to date with the latest news, opportunities, and events for PGRs in this fortnightly newsletter. Remember to let us know what you think and share your feedback at the end of this newsletter.

PGR EDI Working Group
Are you passionate about Equality, Diversity and Inclusion? We're looking for researchers to sit on our PGR EDI Working Group to provide your views on behalf of the postgraduate research community. For more information and to get involved, please email Aysa at a.ozcan@warwick.ac.uk.
These sessions help to ensure you stay compliant with relevant legislation, guidelines, and university policies in your research. You will learn more about regulations to be aware of when working with collaborators, supervisors and external partners, as well as at Warwick. Sessions will take place online on 16 October, from 2-3.30pm (join the session) and on 17 October from 11am-12.30pm (join the session).
The course, recognised by the Warwick Award, provides fundamental awareness of how our way of living is having an impact on the planet, and how you can make a difference by reducing those impacts. There are two certificates available. Find out more here.
