Focus on: New Deal for Postgraduate Researchers (PGRs)
A Vitae member-only event
The UK government set out a commitment to a new deal for postgraduate research in the UK R&D Roadmap (2020) and subsequently in the R&D People and Culture Strategy (2021). To develop a more attractive offer for postgraduate research training, UKRI is seeking broad input from across the research system on how to deliver accessible, fair and well-funded conditions for future doctoral candidates.
Join this Vitae member discussion forum to share your views around the four focus areas of the 'New Deal for PGRs':
- models and access
- routes in, through and out
- rights and conditions
- funding and financial support.
Themes arising from the event will be collated and submitted by Vitae as written input to UKRI's open consultation for input on the New Deal.
