About Us x Events Help & Information Get Involved Talk to us
Hello Postgrads!
Now that the chaos of Welcome Week is over, I hope you’re settling in well to Warwick life. We’ve got some great events going on in the next few weeks as a way to celebrate making it through the first few weeks of term and settle into postgrad life.
As I mentioned last week, I’ve started a new programme, Postgrad Connections, where postgraduates can meet every month in an informal setting to chat about your research and PG life in general. Pick up a few wellbeing and academic tips from others, share some of your own practices, and have the chance to present your work-in-progress research in a relaxed and informal setting over a drink or two! I’ve had a bunch of sign-ups already for the first session on Thursday 11th October (4.30-6pm, The Graduate), but there are a few more spaces available so feel free to email me (ellie.king@warwicksu.com) and sign up for a place!
This Sunday (14th October), we’re hosting a good old British Postgraduate Sunday Lunch! Come and join us in the Graduate for some great food (meat and vegan options available) and even better drink (alcoholic and non-alcoholic available), all for just £5! Head to https://tickets.warwicksu.com/ents/event/16954/ to get your ticket.
Don’t forget that this week also marks your last chance to get involved with the Autumn Elections here at the SU! This is your opportunity to really help make a positive difference to student life here at Warwick – whether that’s by providing student oversight on one of our SU Execs (including the Postgrad Exec) or by representing your fellow students as a Faculty Rep or Part-Time Officer. There are also positions as NUS National Conference Delegates available if you want to get stuck into student politics at the national level!
Nominations close at 12pm Noon on Friday – make sure you visit the SU website via the link below to find out more about the different positions that are available and to nominate yourself.
See you soon,
Ellie
