Postgraduate Network (PGN)
To join a working group you must first join BISA.
Our Postgraduate Network (PGN) enhances the membership experience for PhD students and early career researchers. We organise events, career development and funding opportunities. Membership is free for BISA members and you’ll meet like-minded people on the same journey. Many of our members say they’ve remained in contact with colleagues they met at the PGN throughout their career. The PGN is student led, run by a committee.
