This year's Doctoral Research Conference took place on 18 June 2025. Over 250 doctoral researchers gathered to celebrate the excellence and diversity of doctoral research being undertaken across the university. It was a highly entertaining and fun afternoon and provided an excellent networking opportunity for doctoral researchers to meet colleagues from different disciplines.
We enjoyed a vast range of presentations from doctoral researchers ranging from three minute thesis talks, poetry and bedtime stories along with a keynote presentation from Dr Mark Dallas, Academic Champion for Public Engagement with Research. We also enjoyed an exhibition of research posters, objects, images and research life in pictures.
We would like to thank everyone who was involved and to congratulate the prize winners.
A full recording of the 2025 conference will be available to view in the Doctoral & Researcher College Blackboard organisation in due course. A short highlights film will also be available soon.
We look forward to seeing you at next year’s Conference which will take place on 17 June 2026.
