The Postgraduate Forum exists to provide additional training and networking opportunities for postgraduates across the UK and further afield. We put on a number of events every year, including our long-running Annual Conference Training Symposium (ACTS) before the RGS-IBG’s annual conference. Furthermore, we promote funding opportunities, advertise jobs and offer original blog posts to our community through our media channels (website, Twitter and Instagram). This is done through the hard work and dedication of a committee who work voluntarily to make all of this possible.

Below you can hear the outgoing Chair for 2019-20, Caitlin Hafferty (@CaitlinHafferty), talk about the work of the PGF and our current PGF@Home initiative.

Keep up-to-date with PGF@Home

The Forum is part of the family of RGS-IBG Research and Working Groups. More information on these, including a privacy notice for research group members in line with 2018’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), is available here.
