University of Manchester Postgraduate Summer Research
Showcase (UoM-PSRS)
Call for Posters
Manchester Doctoral College
are proud to announce the launch of the inaugural University of Manchester
Postgraduate Summer Research Showcase (UoM-PSRS), a unique poster-session
that will exhibit the diversity of research conducted by postgraduate
researchers across the entire University. The event will provide a great
opportunity to network, whilst providing exciting new avenues for
interdisciplinary collaboration.

For
postgraduates, UoM-PSRS is a special chance to present your own research before
peers and senior research staff, and gain constructive feedback on your
presentation skills. The experience will be invaluable in building your
academic profile, by both showcasing your research before a non-expert audience
and by making key contacts.

For academic
staff, UoM-PSRS is not only a chance to appreciate the vast multitude of
research that takes place, but it also presents an opportunity to meet groups
from different schools and faculties who may have common areas of interest.
