Research Students’ Network Autumn Picnic - Postgraduate Only
25/10/2026 | 12:00 - 15:00

Doing a research degree can be lonely sometimes. You’re attached to a lab or a supervisor rather than a year group, and it’s easy to go a whole term without meeting anyone outside your own department.

So let’s fix that over a picnic. 🥪

Join us for a relaxed afternoon picnic in Regent’s Park, open to everyone on a postgraduate programme, from any faculty. No presentations, no name
