Professional development and training
Your Personal and Professional Development (PPD) as a researcher and for your future career
Over the span of your research degree you will meet various challenges that entail learning new skills alongside homing your existing skillset. The Graduate School helps to support you on this journey, by running a programme of courses on key skills topics, for example: writing, project planning and presenting. There are other sources of skills support such as the Bristol Doctoral College programme of PPD courses: Personal and professional development | Bristol Doctoral College | University of Bristol.
Please do take advantage of all these opportunities, and, of course, do talk about your skills development with the Graduate School at any time. You can also talk with your supervisors and with other researchers in your research area.
