About

Our Postgraduate Researcher (PGR) blog is a community space for UofG PGRs to share experiences. Written by PGRs for PGRs: whether you are a reader, one of our future writers or a member of the higher education sector – this blog for you.

Dear reader, our blog is somewhere that you can find out what it is really like to be a researcher at the University of Glasgow. Here you will find other PGRs sharing their experiences of doing and sharing research, and of life and wellbeing in Glasgow.

Dear writer, this is an opportunity for you to create an impact beyond your discipline in a less formal way and engage with a wide audience. If you are a UofG PGR who would like to write for us, check out our guidelines here and email Rachel.Eager@glasgow.ac.uk to submit/discuss your blog.

Dear member of the Higher Education Sector, our blog cultivates and supports the hidden curriculum through fostering community, sharing experience, building awareness of opportunities, and enriching researchers’ skills and working relationships. You can find out more about how the PGR experience is embedded in wider HE conversations on other Researcher Development blogs that the University of Glasgow contributes to including The Auditorium and Supervising PhDs.
