The Summer School programme is a mix of courses on qualitative and quantitative methods and skills, with a strong focus on the social aspect of these. This is one of the best opportunities of the calendar year to meet other PhD students.

Content for Summer School has been contributed by academic colleagues from across Scotland each year, but we have also included external course providers in order to widen the programme and focus on career orientated learning.

On average, over 200 students attend this event and can choose from a range of up to 40 workshops over 3 days.
