SWan students

What is a SWan-affiliated student?

A SWan-affiliated student is:

     
  • A PhD student jointly supervised by academics at more than one SWan partner institution.
  • A student enrolled on a SWan course/programme
  • Currently the SWan courses/programmes are:
    • BSc in Biomedical Science(s) at any of the SWan partner institutions
    • BSc in Biomedical Informatics at St George’s
    • Foundation Degree in Long Term Conditions at St George’s
    • Foundation Degree in Health Informatics at Kingston
    • Postgraduate Diploma in Physician’s Assistant Studies at St George’s
    • MSc in Leadership and Management in Health at Kingston
      • MSc in Biotechnology at Kingston
      • MRes neuroscience pathway at St George’s

These students will automatically be provided with access to resources of each member institution, somewhat limited access at first building hopefully to full access in due course. Each student will receive an email from each partner institution when they have been provisioned to obtain access to resources at that institution.

 

SWan-associated students

A SWan-associated student is:

  • A student of any of the three member institutions who is enrolled in a module of a SWan course/programme.
  • A PhD student researching in a discipline area that is covered by one of the SWan Institutes, whether or not supervised by a SWan staff member.

These students are not guaranteed access to resources of each member institution, but will be able to apply for access, with their support of their tutor/supervisor and relevant SWan Institute Director, who should then submit the supported application to the SWan office (enquiries@swlacademicnetwork.ac.uk).
