"Very well done on receiving an offer of a place on our postgraduate programmes. I hope that your preparations for joining us are going well and that you are looking forward to joining our GSD community. We will do our very best to support you to flourish and achieve your goals. I will be able to help with administrative and practical arrangements along with Holly Hamer, our Postgraduate Coordinator. We look forward to getting to know you all."

Heather Robson | Postgraduate Programmes' Manager

"Thank you for applying to join us at Warwick, and congratulations on your offer! Undertaking postgraduate study can be hugely rewarding, but also very challenging. This is maybe especially true if you’re new to the University of Warwick, to the UK, coming from a different disciplinary background (or all of the above). We expect that you have lots of questions, and maybe even some concerns. We’re committed to making your time with us in GSD at Warwick a positive and transformative experience. To that end, please do let us know if there is anything we can do to support you before you arrive. We’re happy to answer any questions and discuss any concerns. We look forward to meeting you soon!"

Dr Nick Bernards | Director of Postgraduate Taught Programmes

"We are looking forward to welcoming you to our exciting PhD programme and our growing research community in Global Sustainable Development at Warwick. We hope to work with you to address issues of global challenges, to engage with transdisciplinary debates and to produce new knowledge about our world and societies in times of crisis. "

Dr Xioadong Lin 林曉東 博士 | Director of Graduate Studies (Research)

Bodrun Nahar, Employability and Placement Manager

"My role is to support you in developing your professional skills throughout your study programme. This support will be tailored because we appreciate and acknowledge that our students will come from different backgrounds, different cultures, and different levels of experience. I will be offering one-to-one advice and guidance on any matters related to employability. You will also have access to employers that I will be building connections with. Additionally, a key part of my role is to support the MASc students who will be undertaking the capstone Workplace Project."

Sustainable Development Goals Annual Report 19/20

"Our report highlights that there is already a lot of excellent research at Warwick which addresses specific individual SDGs. At the same time, we found it harder to identify research projects that explicitly targeted multiple, interconnected goals. Our report is thus an attempt to provide some inspiring examples of work that we feel broadly adopts a nexus thinking approach. Moreover, we invite the Warwick community to reflect on how best to develop and pursue research, teaching, and engagement in a way that contributes to achieving all 17 UN SDGs."
