PGR Hub

Relax, make connections, enjoy fun events and further your development in this unique space for Bristol's postgraduate researcher (PGR) community.

The PGR Hub is a cross-disciplinary research collaboration space where you can connect with fellow research students from across the University. The Hub is situated on the second floor of Senate House and is a dedicated space for postgraduate researchers to relax, work together, and attend events and training. All Staff and PGRs can access the Hub using their U-card.

Summer opening hours

21 June to 9 September, Monday to Friday, 8 am to 8 pm.

PGR Hub events and activities

Running your own event in the PGR Hub

The Bristol Doctoral College welcomes ideas for a non-research related social event that could bring PGRs together in the Hub – and can provide funding to help make your idea a reality.  

If you want to host something fun and creative for all PGRs – for example a quiz, crafternoon or training workshop – then please submit your idea to our PGR Development & Community Fund. Visit our PGR Development & Community Fund page to find out more.

Facilities

The training rooms are self-bookable via Microsoft Bookings if required for less than 3 hours.  If required for more than 3 hours, or you wish to use the collaborative space, please email uob-pgr-hub@bristol.ac.uk. Images of the Hub are available on PGR Hub photos.

I love that the Hub is so close to my office and provides a quiet environment where researchers across all fields are able to come together. As a resource in general, the Hub seems like a great place to meet with PGRs from other departments, have a coffee, and relax during the work day. Staff are always so friendly and ready to help.
