About GRAD
The Graduate Resource and Development (GRAD) Programme is an online, self-directed resource designed specifically to meet the needs of postgraduate students at SETU. This comprehensive programme provides a wealth of information to support the academic, practical, personal, and professional development of research students throughout their postgraduate journey.
How to Use this Resource
GRAD has three mains themes: Academic Selves, Personal Development, and Navigating the System. These are each divided into three parts. You can work through the parts in order or you can jump straight to the information you need for whatever point you are at in your postgraduate journey.
Throughout this programme, you will gain valuable insights from supervisors and other postgraduate students across departments and disciplines. You can also quickly access information provided by faculty and professional staff in areas supporting postgraduates across SETU. GRAD complements existing support services available at the university and we will point you towards these throughout.
GRAD is still under development and additional parts will be released over the rest of this academic year.
