The University has announced that it will create a cross-institutional Doctoral College for the 2017/18 academic year.
The Doctoral College will support the University’s aim to become an international leader in graduate education by:
- driving innovation in the delivery of doctoral provision and facilitating the expansion of our doctoral student population
- providing a single central point of access to a range of professional support services for doctoral students
- offering doctoral students a consistent, high-quality programme of career and personal development opportunities across our discipline base
- providing an institutional focal point for engagement with prospective and current students, external partners and funding bodies
- providing an institutional forum for sharing good practice from across our discipline base
- offering clearer opportunities for career progression and development to those working in the area of doctoral student support
