Entry requirements/cost
National GRADschools are open to all postgraduate researchers in their 2nd year or above. If you are research council funded you will be eligible for a funded place on a GRADschool subject to availability.
If you are a non-research council funded researcher you may apply for a national GRADschool but you or your institution will need to cover the cost of your place and you will need to provide invoice details.
Once you have received a place on a GRADschool your accommodation, meals and course materials are covered. However you will have to pay for your own travelling expenses.
Additional information
This event will include at least half a day of outdoor activities, that will take place whatever the weather so please do bear this in mind and bring suitable clothing! We will remind you of this closer to the event.
