2022-2023

Course Summary

Below are the NExT PhD School courses confirmed so far for the 2022-23 academic year. 

More will become available in due course and will be posted here.

All lectures will be in person in the lecturer's NExT node, and broadcast via Visionable in the other nodes. Should lecturers choose a different lecture delivery mode, they will inform students beforehand as well as record and share all sessions. 

The link on each course gives access to the course syllabus. From there, NExT PhD students will be able to access each course's learning material. This includes the lecture notes and the lecture recordings.
