PhD Hubs

QUESTION:
How many PhD level students are there at the University of Greenwich?  That's grand total, including all three campuses.

By the very nature of this level of study, PhD students have many demands on their time but also, because they are working on their own specific area of research, they can be stuck in a lab or in front of a computer and easily feel lonely and isolated.
This past week I have helped to run three PhD Hubs, one at each campus, alongside Jacqui, the Manager of the Postgrad office. These hubs have been a bit of an experiment but have arisen out of a desire to provide better networking and peer support amongst those studying at PhD level.
Each session was well received by those who attended and they gave us much food for thought about how we can implement an improved level of support.  
Looking ahead we hope to help provide something approximately once every six weeks and trust that there will be some key players amongst the students themselves who will act as advocates to see these hubs established.

ANSWER:  
In total there are approximately 550 PhD students at the University of Greenwich!!!  Many of those coming from overseas.
