On the 25th November 2021, our GRP ran a PGR Networking Event which saw a number of students from across a range of disciplines come together and learn more about our GRP, and how we can support students and enhance their academic journeys.
We were joined by Jonathan Duck, CEO of Amtico International, who kindly presented the awards and certificates to our Essay Competition winners, and also gave an inspiring talk around his career, as well as some advice for students when they think about which careers to opt for.
Jonathan was happy to stay and chat with the students after the event, as were our GRP leads, and overall the evening was a great success.
