These events are where PhD/research students will have the opportunity to hear from and network with employers who value PhD skills. There are three Forums in the Spring term – each focusing on a different sector. A panel of speakers who hold PhDs will showcase various employer perspectives and career paths for candidates. You will have the opportunity to pose questions to the panel during sessions or to individual employers at the end of a session.
