Piscopia PhD information event at the University of Edinburgh

Come along to our in-person PhD information and application event at Bayes Centre. This is a casual opportunity to gather information about the pros and cons of doing a PhD and to get info about the PhD application process. There will also be plenty of time for you to ask questions and speak with women PhD students about their experiences as women in mathematical research.

Our event is aimed at women and non-binary undergraduate or MSc students who are interested in doing a PhD in Mathematics or a related discipline.

Registration closes at noon on 17 November.
