SCGRG bursaries for RGS Postgraduate Mid-term Conference 2019

We are delighted to announce that our research group will be offering two bursaries for postgraduate students to attend and present a paper at the forthcoming RGS Postgraduate Mid-term conference at Manchester Metropolitan University, 24th-26th April 2019.

There are two bursaries to the value of £100 on offer this year, for any student whose research interests lie (broadly) within our research focus of social and cultural geography. It is a fantastic opportunity for postgraduate students to showcase their research, develop their presenting and network skills, hear talks and workshops from established academics within geography and make new friends.

To apply, you must be presenting a paper at the Mid-term conference to be eligible. On application for a bursary, please include the following and email your completed form to rgsmidterm2019@mmu.ac.uk.

Successful applicants will be required to write a short blog post about their experiences at the conference.
