About this Event

Are you a current PGR student in the Faculty of Arts & Humanities? Perhaps you’re considering pursuing a PhD with us, but want to meet people who already have experience and insight? Come along to this high-speed, low-stakes networking event to meet others from across our vibrant PGR community. We’ll provide some questions and games for you to ask whoever you are paired with, and when your time is up, you'll be paired with a new person. Get to know each other, find common ground and shared research interests, and see where your new friendships take you!


This session is welcoming, inclusive and informal; you are welcome to drop in and out as you please. The event is free and open to current and prospective PGRs; booking your place helps us to manage the space.


This event is organised by UCL Department of Information Studies and is part of our ‘Demystifying PhDs in Information Studies’ series.
