Skills for Research Excellence

Skills for Research Excellence (formerly known as ASPIRE) is a generic skills training programme designed to support students throughout their PhD programme. Workshops cover topics from developing your writing and presentation skills, managing your projects, through to Curriculum Vitae (CV) design and developing interview skills to help you prepare for employment after graduation. SfRE also offers useful on-line resources, such as The Seven Secrets of Highly Successful PhD Students. For a list of courses and on-line resources, visit http://www.abdn.ac.uk/sfre/.
