Director's Message
Dear Colleagues,
Many thanks for the huge turn out to the Winter BBQ on Friday. It was a great success, raising over $800 for Kairos Outside for Women. Thanks especially to Kath Hicks for suggesting the charity.
The Physics Market Day is scheduled for mid-August so please think about your projects to be included in this year’s booklet. It’s a fabulous way to attract students and the booklet is a great showcase for the research prospects at RSPE. This year the event will be held in Physics South and offer tours of the facilities as an added bonus. More details to follow in the coming weeks in the Event Horizon.
This year we will offer optional mock-interviews for all seeking promotion. The interview will follow similar lines to the actual interview and be conducted a few weeks prior to the actual interviews. Level A applicants are strongly encouraged to consider having a mock-interview.
There are still some outstanding PDRs to complete. Please talk to your supervisor about initiating your PDR if you haven’t already done so.
Have a good week,
Tim |
