Postgraduate Research Forum
CRELLA Postgraduate Research Forum is held fortnightly (usually on Wednesdays at Putteridge Bury).
The forum provides postgraduate students with opportunities to discuss their studies in a friendly atmosphere and they get constructive feedback from their fellow postgraduate students, Director of Studies (DoS) and other staff members.
We expect all full-time students to attend all meetings.
Full-time students are expected to lead two meetings a year and part-time students one a year.
Meeting format
In every meeting, one postgraduate student takes a lead role, but the content could differ depending on the stage of their studies and how they want to use the forum.
Examples include:
- a work-in-progress presentation (or present a research proposal): raising issues or highlighting problems that you would like others to comment on. Your fellow postgraduate students, your DoS and other staff members will discuss the issues raised.
- a reading discussion: You could suggest an article in advance, which you find interesting, controversial or difficult, for the group to read and discuss.
- a practice conference presentation: Your fellow postgraduate students, your DoS and other staff members will ask questions as a conference audience, and then give constructive feedback.
- viva preparation: If you are waiting for a viva, you can have a mock viva, where you make a short presentation, and a neutral staff member (i.e. not a supervisor or examiner) acting as an examiner in the meeting will lead the questioning. After that, you will also get questions from other students or other staff members
