Graduate Research Board

What is the Graduate Research Board (GRB)?

The (opens in a new window)Graduate Research Board (GRB) is the academic governance board for all graduate research students within the University. Administrative support for the Board is via a dedicated team in UCD Graduate Studies, led by Ciara Cloak, Graduate Research Programme Manager.

The GRB meets monthly to consider policy and strategic matters impacting graduate research students, as well as submissions from Schools for individual graduate research students. Examples of types of submissions (once approved at School level) that may be considered for graduate research students include:

Graduate research students should engage with their supervisor (or RSP if appropriate) in the first instance regarding all submissions which require final approval of the GRB.
