Library Services – Using Electronic Resources
Early on in your research, you will need to survey the literature of your topic to see what work has already been done in the area and what books, articles and papers are available. You will also need to keep up to date with new literature throughout your research.
Searching is done mainly through electronic catalogues and databases, which are made available to you by UCL Library Services. These can be powerful research tools, but library staff will show you how to use them effectively and how to devise appropriate search strategies. Interpreting the results you get requires you to use other electronic and printed library resources, such as books, journals and internet-based services. Most library users need and appreciate a ‘map’ of this research territory, which library staff are happy to provide.
As well as offering introductory and advanced training specifically for graduate students, Library Services also offers regular ongoing subject specific and generalist training and awareness sessions. Waheed Jowiya | Eastman Dental Institute Faculty-specific information skills training is also available on-line.

The programme is offered free of charge and includes both paper- based and online learning materials for self-study, facilitated study sessions and testing sessions.
Statistics For Researchers
This statistics provision for graduate research students is run by specialists from UCL’s Department of Statistical Science. The programme aims to give research students an understanding of principles of statistical demand and analysis and their relevance to research in a range of scientific disciplines. Sessions will generally be partly lectures and partly question-and-answer workshops as appropriate.
They are grouped as follows:
1. Scientific Method, Probability and Statistics A general discussion of the philosophy and role of probability and statistics in scientific research, to help the researcher see the wider context of his/ her research strategy.
2. Observational Studies Dealing with aspects of research design that are central to many social sciences (economics, sociology, psychology, health sciences and evaluation research in educational and environmental fields).

UCL Bright Ideas Awards
The Graduate School is working with UCL Advances to provide funding for the 2011 Bright Ideas Awards, aimed at supporting the development of new student-led businesses emerging from UCL. The UCL Bright Ideas Awards draw on an annual fund of £50,000, available to be offered as convertible loans to businesses led by UCL students. Up to £25,000 is available for businesses led by undergraduate students and £25,000 is available for businesses led by post-graduate students.
The UCL Bright Ideas Awards aim to help bridge the gap in which many new companies find themselves when they search for their first funding. In the university context, this is a particular problem for those businesses that emerge from unconventional beginnings or where they have a seed of an idea, but are not yet ready for venture capital investment.
The winners of these awards will share up to a total of £50,000 in funding that will be offered as a loan to help get their businesses up and running. Specifically, it is hoped that the money will allow the winners to reach the next crucial milestone in their development, whether that be the first prototype or support for landing the Mónica Martín | Centre for Intercultural Studies first customer.

Introduction to Microscopy and Confocal Microscopy
Imaging of biological samples and of live cells and tissues in research projects has grown enormously over the past decade or so. However, most researchers have very little or no training in the theory and use of microscopes in their undergraduate studies.

Key Concepts In Science and Technology Studies
Do you ever feel that your research (either in the sciences or in the humanities) is too narrowly focussed and that you may be missing the bigger picture? This course, run by specialists in the Department of Science and Technology Studies, is designed to help.
Using their wide-ranging interdisciplinary expertise, this course sets out to explore the links between the sciences (broadly construed) and the historical, philosophical, and sociological context and issues surrounding them. The course will be particularly suitable for graduates in both sciences and humanities keen to familiarise themselves with the broader context and questions underlying their research areas. Students will be guided towards relevant themes and perspectives through a series of sessions run by each member of the course staff in turn (each focussing on a particular aspect of science and technology studies, and broadly falling into the five categories of history of science, philosophy of science, sociology of science, science communication and science policy).

Confidence Building
An underlying lack of self-confidence and low self-esteem can undermine academic performance and the ability to communicate effectively with fellow students, colleagues and academic staff. It can also make it difficult to value and use the skills which you already possess.
The workshop will be participatory in style and will use a cognitive Jessica Bryant | Genetics, Evolution and Environment behavioural approach to challenge the negative thought patterns which fuel poor self-esteem. Each student will learn how to identify and work towards a small goal for change over the course. The skills you will learn can then be used to tackle further goals for change in Communication Skills: the future.

Societies www.ucl.ac.uk/gradschool/societies
The Graduate School is pleased to support academic societies run by graduates for graduates at UCL. Societies offer a variety of activities, both social and academic, and provide a good way of meeting people with similar interests. Many academic societies arrange for high profile researchers to give special lectures to their members. We provide limited funding for the creation of new academic societies by graduate students. Please contact the Graduate School if you would like to set up a new society. New societies are added to our web site at: www.ucl.ac.uk/gradschool/societies/. Below is a list of some graduate societies at UCL.

Sophia – the magazine for academic journalism in UCL’s research community
Sophia is a new volunteer-run magazine aiming to showcase talent in research, writing and art from current UCL staff and graduate students. By publishing academic content written for a general readership, Sophia hopes to encourage the sharing of ideas and an appreciation of the advances being made in areas of research other than our own; and to act as a forum for the discussion of academic issues and current affairs. We aim to provide content that combines academic rigour, a strong and readable narrative and high standards of design, not typically found in university publications. Articles will include literature reviews, journal-style articles written for a popular audience, opinion on current affairs, conference summaries and academic book reviews.
In creating Sophia we hoped to provide opportunities for graduate students to begin writing about their work and for established researchers to write more creatively and for a broader audience than in a specialist journal. We believe that providing this platform will help contributors to develop as writers as well as giving readers an insight into the diverse spectrum of research taking place at the university.
