Besides being a PhD student, I am also a Sub-warden at Falkner Eggington Hall and a Student Ambassador of the University.

Why do think people should get involved in the network?

The PhDSSN offers a friendly and inclusive environment for PhD students to network with fellow PhD students and staff across Schools and Departments.

What are you looking forward to being part of the PHDSSN committee?

Support and fun outside of PhD.
