UCL's Careers Service to hold workshops for doctorate students

UCL PhD students are invited to attend a series of workshops being held in May.

Organised by UCL's Careers Service, the events are designed to provide advice and information on career progression and job application processes.

As part of the Graduate School's Skills Development programme, a total of four career planning and management workshops are being held, specifically tailored for PhD students. Registration is also open for a similar series for master's students, to be held later this year.

Students will be able to explore their personality at the 'MBTI' workshop, using the Myers Briggs Type Indicator.
