The College of Science and Engineering has over 1700 registered PhD students at various stages of their programme. Each of the seven Schools exercise a large degree of freedom in organising a whole variety of research degrees most of which are funded by external organisations: UKRI, Welcome Trust, ERC, and other such research funding bodies as well as direct funding from Industry.
Most final-year PhD students can probably identify with needing a break from thesis writing. The desire for a break motivated me to sign up for Edinburgh Local GRADschool, an annually occurring three-day workshop for PhD candidates in the last eighteen months of their studies. Vitae launched this intensive and highly rewarding professional development course in 1968, and GRADschools have taken place across the UK since then (2017).
Studying abroad opens up a lot of experiences that wouldn’t usually be available in the average semester at college. One aspect of the program with IES is the chance to apply for a part-time internship. While doing an internship in itself can be done any semester at home, interning abroad provides the opportunity to experience the work culture of another country.
