DocSoc is the society for Postgraduate Research students (PGRs), run by PGRs! Why don't you join us and connect?
WELCOME TO OUR NEW, AND RETURNING, MEMBERS FOR THE 2024-2025 ACADEMIC YEAR!
WHO ARE WE?
DocSoc is a society run by PGRs (postgraduate researchers) for PGRs! It is the place for Postgraduate Researchers to meet, support one another, collaborate and have fun! If you are a PGR, looking to meet and connect with other postgraduate researchers, then DocSoc is the society for you!
Our Society aims to:
At the moment, we will be running an evening social every first Wednesday of the month and a lunchtime social every third Wednesday. Plus - a range of other workshops and informal meet-ups throughout the semester! Keep an eye on Instagram, for updates, but you'll also recieve email updates after you join :-)
Once you join, we'll also be able to add you into our DocSoc WhatsApp Community, where you can get the latest news first and chat to other members!
WHAT ARE WE UP TO?
Last month, our VP, Kezia, ran a great collage session where we were able to come together, relax, unwind and create some fun artwork! Check out our schedule below for our current plans for this month (viewing better on mobile site!), and see our insta for more photos from past events! MEMBERS - scroll down to the bottom of this page to see our individual event pages with more info <3
