Training and Resources
There are a number of training opportunities and resources available for MRes/PhD students. We have listed these below, and encourage you to read more and make use of them during the course of your study at our Department. As additional training opportunities become available, we will share them on this page.
Researcher Development & Warwick SkillsForge
Researcher Development is provided by the Doctoral College to support you as a researcher; and help you get the best from yourself and Warwick whilst you are here.
There is an online and in-person programme of support and training throughout the year, so you should be able to find an event that suits you.
You can book onto these training sessions and workshops via Warwick Skills Forge.
RSE Training Resources
The University’s Scientific Computing service offers a range of training opportunities in various computer programming languages, which you may find useful.
Quantitative Economics Lectures
A series of lectures is available to view online on quantitative economic modeling.
Library Support
Our Economics Librarian, is Jackie Hanes. She is able to offer advice and support with information research queries, and can be reached by email or via MS Teams.
Jackie's working hours are, 9:00am — 5:30pm Monday to Thursday, and 9:00am — 4:30pm on Fridays.
Like many university staff, Jackie works in a hybrid way – partly in the office in the Library and partly from home.
The general Library email address (library@warwick.ac.uk) may be used, and your enquiry will be dealt with by Academic Support colleagues, or passed on to the specialist.
