CREATIVE THINKING IN RESEARCH
Our Creative Thinking in Research workshop for PhD researchers is an invaluable resource designed to enhance critical thinking and promote wellbeing. This workshop encourages participants to use creative methods to generate innovative ideas in their research.
Overview
This creative workshop is for PhD researchers from all disciplines. Participants are encouraged to explore their research via the lens of poetic language. Drawn from Dr. Ryan's personal experience as both a poet and a PhD researcher (graduated in 2010), participants will utilise the multivalent potential of poetic experimentation to generate innovative critical and creative ideas in their own research.
​
Available both on-campus and online, this transformative three-hour session can also be part of our 2-3 day retreat programme.
​
Dr. Catriona Ryan SFHEA will be the facilitator of the session.
