Postgraduate researcher development

We’re committed to supporting the personal, professional and career development of our postgraduate researchers (PGRs) and do so with world-class, award-winning resources.

We aim to equip you with the skills, attributes and knowledge to thrive as independent researchers and professionals.

The òòò½ÎÑÊÓÆµ Doctoral College (MDC) offers strategic, University-wide support to this commitment.

MDC is a collaboration between staff from across the University who are dedicated to providing the best possible postgraduate research experience.  

Our goal is to support all postgraduate researchers to make the most of their opportunities at òòò½ÎÑÊÓÆµ. By setting standards and expectations for postgraduate researchers and the University, we ensure that you’re working in a stimulating research environment, with access to excellent facilities and a comprehensive training and development programme.  

We encourage you to embrace the development opportunities available to you during your time at the University. The members of MDC are proud to promote you, the postgraduate research community, and to champion your needs across the institution. We very much look forward to celebrating your successes with you.
