Writing Proposals and Abstracts (Writing Series)This event has been organised by Researcher Development. For any enquiries, please contact pgresearchskills@warwick.ac.uk. A workshop that presents the main aspects of writing an abstract, as well as the common errors in conception and use. An abstract is a precise and concise overview of a larger piece of writing and is placed at the beginning of the article, essay or thesis it describes. It is often referred to as "summary" and even more often, it is misused in a variety of contexts to signify types of introductory writing which cannot, in fact, function as abstracts.
Abstracts give the essential elements of the finished project rather than going into detail, and describes rather than evaluates.

Academic Interviews - Making an ImpactThis event has been organised by Researcher Development. For any enquiries please contact pgresearchskills@warwick.ac.uk.
Interviews are a chance to demonstrate our success in our research career so far and our potential to reach greater heights. Or they can reduce us to nervous individuals who’ve lost the capability to speak (yes that has happened to us). This session will focus on how to prepare for our interviews, going in with a positive mind set and giving well executed answers to questions.
The second part of this workshop will focus on what questions we would be likely to receive in academic interviews. We will each take 5 questions to prepare and then discuss our potential responses with a partner.
