Postgraduate research induction

Your induction is a programme of activities and events to introduce to your school and course. It's important that you attend each induction activity to give you the best start to the year.

Postgraduate researchers in the School of Chemistry are directed to our Postgraduate Information School of Chemistry Moodle page. Which contains a video of the induction talk, your postgraduate handbook and all information relevant to your studies. It is recommended that you also contact your supervisor regarding starting arrangements and training.
