The Contract Reseach and Teaching Forum (CRTF) of the RGS-IBG will be
holding a workshop aimed at postgraduates on post-doctoral careers as part
of the PGF Annual conference.
The CRTF are also seeking new Committee Members (including a chair) partly
because several of the committee wish to step down following appointment to
permanent contracts.
Please contact the Nicola Shelton, CRTF Chair ([log in to unmask]) if you
are interested in joining the CRTF committee.
Details of the PGF conference are given below.

With apologies for X-posting,
Please promote this exciting event amongst your postgraduate students:
RGS-IBG Postgraduate Forum
Mid-Term Conference and AGM 2006
Saturday March 4th 2006
University of Newcastle
Looking for an informal but academically relevant audience to present your
research? Well, the forthcoming RGS Post Graduate Forum conference is just
that! Following on from the success of last year's conference at
Nottingham University , the RGS -IBG Postgraduate Forum Mid-Term
Conference provides the opportunity to discuss research and ideas in a
friendly and supportive atmosphere, something that is not always offered
at some high profile geography conferences. The event encourages
postgraduate students, at any stage in their career, to present their
research or simply to listen to others. Alongside, members of the Contract
Research and Teaching Forum will be running workshops covering important
issues to postgrads, such as postdoctoral career development. Afterwards,
a post event ‘warm down' is planned offering a chance to socialise with
those from the conference but in a non-academic environment.
