Wednesday 10th September 2025, 10.30am–2.30pm
Travel bursaries available (subject to approval)
Do you love learning? Do you enjoy being creative? Would you like to contribute to the advancement of knowledge and technology?
Have you ever considered pursuing a PhD as your first (or next) job?
Four of the leading Doctoral Training Centres at the University of Warwick (Mathematics, Statistics, Computer Science, Modelling of Heterogeneous Systems) are coming together in a one-day event to give information, answer questions, shatter myths and break stereotypes about PhD programmes.
We will address common questions, such as:
- Can I afford to do a PhD? How is it a 'job'?
- Am I ‘good enough’ to pursue a PhD?
- Do I need to know exactly what I want to work on for my PhD?
- Will I fit in?
- How will a PhD enhance my future career prospects?
This event is specifically designed for students from groups currently underrepresented in PhD programmes in Mathematical and Computing Sciences. The aim is to showcase the PhD as part of a career path, give information to help you decide whether it is right for you and provide guidance on how to succeed.
With this in mind, we strongly encourage attendance by undergraduate students in their second year or above and MSc students or graduates in any course with a significant component in Mathematics or Computing who identify with an underrepresented group.
