The Doctoral Academy Newsletter

Published each semester, the Doctoral Academy Newsletter provides postgraduate researchers with updates on training opportunities, funding calls, and other initiatives designed to enhance the researcher experience. The newsletter also serves as a platform to celebrate success across the postgraduate community — highlighting research achievements, sharing stories of innovation, and recognising the valuable contributions of doctoral candidates to the wider academic environment.

Whether you’re looking for professional development opportunities, information on upcoming events, or simply inspiration from your peers’ research journeys, the Doctoral Academy Newsletter aims to inform, connect, and celebrate our vibrant postgraduate researcher community.
