Graduate School Induction

We would like to welcome all new postgraduate research students to Keele University and our vibrant postgraduate community.

The Graduate School runs an induction programme for all new postgraduate research students joining the University. This programme, which complements the comprehensive induction programme provided by your Research Institute, is designed to inform you about the Keele postgraduate community and the range of services and opportunities available to you during your time at Keele.

It’s a great opportunity to meet other research students, academics, and some of the key Academic and Administrative staff responsible for Research Degree programmes at Keele.
