Baloons of different colours

GUDTP students are warmly invited to this year’s Joint ESRC DTP End of Year celebration on the afternoon of Thursday 3 December. This year, the event is hosted by the LSE ESRC DTP.

The event will begin at 4.30pm with tea, coffee and biscuits, followed by a session on networking and visibility skills with LSE Careers Consultant, Catherine Reynolds. We will then head over to the Senior Common Room at LSE for festive drinks and canapes.

We hope this will prove a chance to learn new skills, celebrate your achievements, catch up with colleagues, and enjoy drinks and nibbles amidst to the festive season!

You will also be joined by students from three other ESRC DTPs (LSE, LISS, and UBEL), so this will also present an excellent opportunity to extend your network of peers and colleagues beyond GUDTP.
