'PhD pULse' - New podcast series for UL PhD candidates on Spotify

Podcast Series 

The Doctoral College has begun recording a PhD podcast series for UL doctoral candidates. 

Entitled ‘PhD pULse', the weekly podcast series is available on Spotify and aims to showcase the research of the UL PhD community. Conducted in the Glucksman Library’s audio studio, each episode features a 15-20 minute interview with a UL doctoral candidate with a view to offering a brief, yet insightful, look at their research.

The podcast series has several benefits for UL postgraduate researchers (PGRs) in terms of making complex research accessible to a wider audience as well as enhancing their professional development, public engagement and outreach. The series also offers opportunities for PhD candidates to connect with professionals and stakeholders outside academia who might be interested in their research.

The podcast series also prepares PhD candidates for interactions with the media, such as interviews or public talks. This is essential for both academic and non-academic career advancement and helps PGRs to understand how to adapt their message for different audiences – a skill that is highly valued in both academia and industry.
