Introduction to Skills Development and the Research Student Log
Induction Session for Research Students and Supervisors
This interactive session presents tools that researchers will be using throughout their degree programme for self-assessment and self-directed development of the broader knowledge, skills and attributes expected from today's researchers.
The two-hour session will introduce new research degree students to the Doctoral Skills Development Programme and the Research Student Log, showing how they can maximise their potential and research experience whatever their intended career paths. Specific guidance will be given in identifying both areas of relative strength and areas to be developed, taking an evidence-based approach to the development of both.
Session Outline
- Welcome & Introduction
- Skills Development at UCL
- Self Assessment and Planning
- Milestones in the Research Degree
- Project meeting management
- Research Student Log
- Questions
Consideration is also given to communication and meeting management, to ensure that meetings with your research supervisors and advisors produce outcomes which are productive for all concerned.
There are three Induction sessions each academic year. Registration opens in Term 1. Further information will be available in due course
