Celebrating our students
The Graduate School facilitates a stimulating and enriching learning and research environment for both internal and external graduate students and postgraduate researchers. Our programme of training and development activities is designed to help students conduct their research whilst facilitating them to becoming independent researchers.
A selection of recent research, publications and posters by Oxford University postgraduate students who have completed a Graduate School training workshop can be found below.
