Please save the date for the 2026 Annual Postgraduate Conference, taking place on Tuesday 16 June 2026.
The Annual Postgraduate Conference is an opportunity for PGRs to share research, exchange ideas, and connect with peers from across disciplines. Whether you’re at an early stage of your doctorate or approaching completion, the conference offers a supportive space to present work, attend sessions, and be part of the wider research community.
Further details — including registration information, and the full programme — will be shared closer to the time. For now, we encourage you to mark the date in your calendar.
We look forward to welcoming you in June 2026.
As we look ahead to this year’s Annual Postgraduate Conference, it’s also a good moment to reflect on previous conferences and the research shared by PGRs across the University. Over the past few years, the conference has brought together postgraduate researchers from a wide range of disciplines to present work in progress, exchange ideas, and connect with peers.
