ONLINE: Postgraduate Wellbeing 101: Resilience & Resourcefulness: Key Self-Management Skills for Postgrad Success
About the webinar
This webinar aims to explore common challenges experienced by Postgraduate students across all levels of study, especially in the dissertation stage of their studies, and ways of overcoming them. As a new or returning postgraduate student, we encourage you to join us as we delve into this all-important topic and learn more about the postgraduate journey from a mental health viewpoint. You will also have the opportunity to pose questions to a mental health professional who will offer insight and guidance on pursuing a balanced path to success.
