Welcome

It is a pleasure to welcome you to the first GRADnet Winter School. This is an exciting opportunity for you to interact with employers from leading companies through interactive workshops, presentations and poster sessions.

One strand of the Winter School focuses on exploring where physics is used by employers. Many Physics PhD projects focus on fundamental aspects of physics. Here you will have the opportunity to see how industry uses the physics research skills you acquire in a broader context and you may start to expand your Physics PhD research training to address some of the major challenges facing UK industry in the 21st Century.

A parallel strand gives you the chance to hone those additional professional skills that will make you even more employable. You will develop your analytical and problem-solving skills, and your ability to present persuasively to a diverse audience. These are further skills that employers look for and that will help you succeed in your doctoral research and your viva, as well as in interviews and future employment.

GRADnet is the collaborative physics graduate school of the SEPnet partnership made up of the Physics Departments from University of Hertfordshire, University of Kent, The Open University, University of Portsmouth, Queen Mary University of London, University of Reading, Royal Holloway University of London, University of Southampton, University of Surrey and University of Sussex. This winter school is the second in a series for GRADnet following on from our hugely successful summer school at NPL last June. We hope you enjoy it as much as those who attended at NPL enjoyed theirs. Finally, we would like to take this opportunity to thank all the contributors to this winter school, both individuals and corporations including: Airbus Defence & Space, MouseTrap Innovation, National Physical Laboratory, Petroleum Geo-Science, Oxford Instruments, RBA Acoustics, STFC Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, Tranquility Aerospace and especially Culham Centre for Fusion Energy for hosting the event.

Consultancy Challenge

Dr Dawn Duke & Prof Pam Denicolo

This activity based workshop provides an opportunity for you to take on the role of consultants and attempt to propose a solution to a challenge that is facing a real world employer. In doing so, you will discover that the skills that you have developed during your doctorate are transferable to real world business situations. On Monday afternoon, you will be guided through a series of techniques to encourage you to work as a team to come up with innovation solutions and plan how you will develop a proposal. On Thursday, you will put together a one-two minute pitch and a poster demonstrating your team’s proposed strategy which will be presented to the employers who posed the challenge. There will be prizes for the best proposals!
