The UK Postgraduate Student Seminar Exchange Programme

This is a trial programme, initiated by the Gravitational Physics Group of the Institute of Physics, to encourage UK gravitational physics postgraduate students to visit one another's institutions to give a seminar, to organise a seminar in their own institution, and exchange ideas. The current list of speakers can be found here.

We are able to provide a small sum (c. £50 per student) to cover travel costs for a limited number of students this year. Each student participating will have to make all the arrangements for the student visiting his/her institution, including organising a room, data projector and inviting members of their group/department to attend. This will then be reciprocated.

If you would like to participate in this programme, please:

• Register on our list of speakers by sending an email to Paul Abel at pga3@leicester.ac.uk with your: Name, Email Address, Supervisor, Institute, Seminar Topic, Title and a Short Abstract (please write "Student Seminar" in the email subject line).
• Check on the list of speakers to see if there is a someone you would like to hear and contact them directly to agree the exchange (the list will be updated regularly, so please keep checking).
• Once you have registered on the list and agreed an exchange, email Harvey Reall at Harvey.Reall@nottingham.ac.uk with an estimate of your travel costs, to secure funding (again, please write "Student Seminar" in the email subject line).
• If you have any feedback on the programme, please send an email to Paul Abel at pga3@leicester.ac.uk.
