SUMMARY:YCEDE Inclusive Research Network event “Candid Conversations: Nav
 igating Life Behind the PhD”
DESCRIPTION:This online PGR-led event will explore how three PhD students h
 ave tackled the ups and downs of their research degree\, exploring the per
 sonal aspects of PhD journeys that aren’t often talked about. From crush
 ed hopes and unfulfilled expectations to surprising highlights and motivat
 ing encounters\, we want to hear about how these experiences have been nav
 igated and the impact they have had on each student's research journey.\n\
 nThe session will run as a panel chaired by two of YCEDE’s scholarship h
 olders\, Lubena and Amirah\, followed by some time for questions from atte
 ndees.\n\nThe event is part of the Inclusive Research Network event seri
 es.\n\nYCEDE\n\nThe Yorkshire Consortium for Equity in Doctoral Education 
 (YCEDE) is a collaboration between five universities in Yorkshire\, 12 UKR
 I funded Doctoral Training partnerships and Centres for Doctoral Training 
 plus a number of external partners dedicated to equity at doctoral level. 
 Central to YCEDE is the question of access to doctoral study for graduates
  from Black\, Asian and Minority Ethnic backgrounds.\n\nOfS\, Research Eng
 land and YCEDE partners have committed to invest more than £3.6 million o
 ver 4 years to improve access and participation of BAME people in postgrad
 uate research study across Yorkshire. The project is divided into four wor
 kstreams led by different people and involving all partners. University of
  Bradford is involved in Workstream 3: Enhancing the on-course doctoral ex
 perience lead by Prof Udy Archibong. The workstream will develop a tailore
 d mentoring package for PGRs of Colour through developing 1-2-1 mentoring 
 with academics and non-academics.\n\nAnalysis of doctoral application succ
 ess rates at YCEDE partners show that home fee paying People of Colour are
  less likely to receive an offer than White British applicants\, but where
  they receive an offer\, are just as likely to go on to enrol as White app
 licants. As a consequence\, important voices are not heard\, and as a resu
 lt\, the research enterprise is deprived of invaluable opportunities for c
 reative problem solving. YCEDE aims to reduce the gap in access to PGR edu
 cation between home fee paying BAME and White applicants and thus the ethn
 icity gap in progression into academic and other research careers.\n\nwww.
