Join us for an online workshop about the application process for our UGS Scholarships (PGT), led by an experienced PGT Careers Advisor. You'll also be able to hear from a panel of last year's Scholars about their experience in the role.

The UGS recruits ten PGT students each year to act as UGS Scholars (PGT), to support our postgraduate community until the end of August in return for a £1000 scholarship.

If you are passionate about delivering postgraduate taught events, building supportive communities and you want to boost your experience base and CV, then you might just have what it takes to be a UGS Scholar!

The event will cover:

  • How to identify the 'hiring needs' of the UGS PGT scholarship;
  • How to demonstrate that you meet these needs through your skills and experience;
  • How to perfect your CV;
  • How to structure and write your personal statement;
  • How to use language effectively and persuasively.

You'll also have the chance to ask any questions you have to our PGT Careers Advisor Anna Flatt, to UGS Community Engagement Officer Elizabeth O'Connor, who leads the scholarship scheme, and to a small panel of UGS Scholars from last year.

The event will be recorded for those who can't make it - please register as normal to receive the recording via email after the workshop has finished.
