PhD in a Second Language

A PhD is challenging. Doing it in another language makes it more so. Even if your first language is English but you're unfamiliar with British Academia, there will be something here to support you.

The series is designed and run by a Warwick PhD Alumni, Lecturer and RD facilitator who still occasionally struggles to find the correct word.

The series is designed to support you with many aspects of the process. We cover writing and speaking, reading and presenting and navigating GB culture.

Workshop details for the Autumn programme will appear here with booking links.

Responsible Innovation

A process that seeks to promote creativity and opportunities for science and innovation that are socially desirable and undertaken in the public interest.

A variety of frameworks, tools and resources have been developed to support Responsible Innovation, for both research and business communities. They share approaches which facilitate the anticipation of consequences, and engagement with stakeholders, including policymakers and the public.
