Started in 2012, the SERC Doctoral Students Forum (previously called the SERC Doctoral Fellows Program Forum) provides a unique venue for doctoral students to present their research in an open assembly of leading systems thinkers from government, industry, and academia. Doctoral students from SERC collaborating universities are invited and encouraged to present their work even if the research was not funded through a SERC research task.
