PGR Community Hub

A friendly and informal interdisciplinary space for all Postgraduate Research students.

Welcome to the PGR Community Hub

The PGR Community Hub is a space run by PGRs for PGRs. We host a range of events to allow PGRs from all faculties and at all stages of research to come together, share ideas and experiences and make progress on their research in a friendly, interdisciplinary environment.
