New doctoral researchers will be invited to an induction event by their Research Institute doctoral team.
You will be welcomed into your research area and provided with important information, focusing particularly on the initial stages. If you have not already been contacted about this, please get in touch with your Research Institute team in the first instance. Their contact details can be found on the RI Support Teams page.
There will also be a central welcome event and rolling induction hosted by the Researcher and Innovator Development Academy with input from the Doctoral School, Library Research Support, Research Ethics and Skills Centre teams.
You can find associated materials on the RESEARCH DEGREES blackboard site under ‘Induction Packs’.
The University’s Research Degree Regulations, Code of Practice for Research Students and Supervisors and other key policy documents can be found on the Research Degrees site on Blackboard. The Sheffield Hallam University PGR Handbook is also available to download from the site and this provides you with an overview of essential information relating to your research degree. You can log in to Blackboard through MyHallam.
