Why Study HereLecture Series
A PhD student lecture series is held every October for incoming students. The course is an integral part of the postgraduate programme: three weeks of lectures, interspersed with practical demonstrations, provide an overview of current research at the institute and introduce students to our state-of-the-art facilities. This is complemented by lectures on science and society, good scientific practice and science communication, and students are engaged in discussions through practical presentations and journal clubs.
The course comprises modules spanning the major research activities of the CSC. Lectures are taught in an interdisciplinary fashion by group leaders and senior scientists, and collectively involve every research group at the CSC.
The 3rd year symposium is also part of the lecture series, allowing 3rd year students to show the incoming students and the institute as a whole what they have achieved in their time at the CSC. This has been a popular and well-attended symposium.
