Our Graduate School provides a stimulating and challenging environment for you to explore and develop your full potential within the scientific disciplines relevant to your research, and more widely in a range of generic transferable skills. With increased globalisation of industry and rapidly changing technology, you can expect the workplace to continually evolve. To be competitive in this workplace, you will require a range of generic skills and the ability to be a flexible, proactive, independent learner who can adapt to the changing needs of future employers.
