An in-person writing retreat in Sheffield for PGRs from WRDTP partner universities researching Digital Technologies, Communication and AI.
About this Event

This writing retreat is for PGR students interested in the Digital Technologies, Communication and Artificial Intelligence Pathway, providing a focused and supportive environment to make progress on your personal writing goals, alongside academics and other PGRs. The retreat includes opportunities for peer discussion about your experiences of academic writing, drop-in sessions for feedback from our team of academics, and ample time for you to get on with your own writing.

This event is fully catered, and includes a night’s hotel accommodation. Arrival will be from 10:00 on Monday 29th June, and the event will finish at approximately 14:30 on Tuesday 30th June.



Outcomes:

You can expect to:

  • Make progress on your personal writing goals;
  • Develop a range of skills, including academic writing and developing writing routines and rituals;
  • Build connections with PGRs from the DCA Pathway.


Important:

  • This is an in-person event in Sheffield (meals and refreshments will be provided).
  • This event is open to members of WRDTP partner institutions only.
  • Bookings will close at 9.00am on Friday 12th June.
  • When booking, we ask that you use your institutional (.ac.uk) email address and complete all fields of the booking form. Thank you for your understanding.


Non-Attendance:

Whilst this event is free to attend for social science PGRs at our partner universities, please note that it has been organised at a significant cost to the WRDTP (approximately £180 per person). It is therefore essential that you inform us as soon as possible, and with a minimum of 3 working days’ notice, if you need to cancel your place. This will help us to avoid wastage, and allow us to offer your place to someone else. The WRDTP reserves the right to make a deduction from your RTSG (for ESRC-funded PGRs) or to charge your department (for PGRs with other funding arrangements) if you cancel at short notice, or if you do not attend the event having booked a place. Thank you for your understanding.
