WRDTP Data Management and Open Scholarships 2024

Advanced Research Training for all Social Science Postgraduate Research Students

All new social science doctoral researchers from the Universities of Bradford, Hull, Leeds, Manchester Metropolitan, Sheffield, Sheffield Hallam and York are warmly invited to attend the White Rose Doctoral Training Partnership Data Management and Open Scholarships event taking place on the 26th November 2024, at Inox, on Level 5, Students’ Union Building at the University of Sheffield.

This is a compulsory event for ESRC funded PhD students (i.e. PhD students who are starting their 1st year of study in the academic year 2024/25). It is also open to all non-ESRC funded PhD students within the White Rose Universities.

Students beginning their Masters in Social Science Research in the academic year 2024/2025 are welcome to attend, but we advise waiting until the first year of PhD study.

If you attended the WRDTP Data Management and Open Scholarships event whilst completing your MA Social Science Research degree during academic year 2023/2024, please note you do not have to attend this event again but please inform the WRDTP office via training@wrdtp.ac.uk that you will not be attending.

Doctoral Researchers need to register with an interdisciplinary themed training Pathway when they book a place at this event. To see which Pathway is appropriate for you, please see the following Pathway summaries here.

Supervisors are also invited to join us at this event.

This training session will be delivered face-to-face at the University of Sheffield.

This event is now closed for bookings.
Please cancel your ticket if you can no longer attend the event.
