Acting Director's Message
Dear RSPE staff and students
A Happy New Year and welcome back after the holiday period.
I hope that you had a good break and are now refreshed and energised for the year ahead.
Many of you will be thinking about writing ARC proposals (DP and DECRAs), so I encourage you to take advantage of the School and College review system in the first week of February. In the meantime, liaise closely with your supervisor and your Head of Department on your proposed topic, and good luck with putting your proposal together over the coming month.
Best wishes
Ken |
