Find your place in our diverse, collegial community, where you can connect with like minds, find support when you have setbacks and share your successes.
There are lots of opportunities to help you settle in and find your tribe, from weekly virtual coffee sessions to University-wide activities organised by and for postgraduate researchers.
You can also get involved in seminars, focused research groups and interdisciplinary collaborations within the business school and across the faculty. Annual Doctoral College events, such as a poster exhibition and Three Minute Thesis competition, are an additional way to showcase your work and meet academic and industry colleagues.
We also help you prepare for the future. With more than 400 professional development workshops each year, you can build a programme tailored to your ambitions.
We’re committed to removing barriers to postgraduate research with award-winning initiatives like the Race Equality Charter, Athena Swan recognition and Black Futures Scholarships. Dedicated networks, such as a parents’ and carers’ network and LGBTQ+ groups, bring together communities with shared interests and priorities. There are also comprehensive wellbeing, disability and inclusion services for any additional support you might need.
On campus, you’ll have access to computer labs, quiet study areas and the University’s main Hartley Library, which is home to extensive business and economics resources. And when you’re not hard at work, there’s plenty to enjoy in Southampton, a safe, friendly coastal city with a thriving cultural scene, green spaces, a mild climate and easy travel links to London and beyond.
