What's Happening in the Hive?

Shut Up and Write!

Monday 16th May (16.00 - 17.30) - Dhaba Café (Arts C)

The Sussex Research Hive Scholars invite you to join them, to stop procrastinating and start writing!

Come sit down with a group of your fellow researchers, and see how much you can accomplish in less than two hours.  A £3 coffee/snack voucher will be provided, but please arrive 10 - 15 minutes early, before the Dhaba Café stops serving.

Keep an eye on the Shut up and Write Facebook page!

 

Doctoral Discussions: Viva

Tuesday 31st May (12.00 - 14.00) - Fulton 107

Lunch will be provided

For their final Doctoral Discussions session of the year, the Hive Scholars have decided to focus on one of the aspects of the PhD that many people find most intimidating: the viva.

The Scholars are putting together an informal panel of doctoral researchers who have recently completed their vivas, and are willing to share their experiences with others. From overcoming nerves to tips on preparation, come gather some tips from researchers who have been there and done that! 

Please contact the Hive Scholars at researchhive@sussex.ac.uk if you are interested in speaking!

Book a place.
