The University also helps you after you've joined by offering training to develop research-related skills and providing funding opportunities to cover research-related travel costs.

I attended two international events last year: the I-Rec Conference 2019 in Gainesville (Florida), covered by the School of Architecture, Building and Civil Engineering Research Fund and Santander Travel Award; and the UNESCO Training Course for Disaster Risk Management for Cultural Heritage 2019 in Kyoto (Japan), covered by the Ede and Ravenscroft Prize. Both events have been extraordinary opportunities for my current and future development.
