PGR Student IT Catalogue. Postgraduate research students can request a laptop for the duration of their studies. The PGR student IT catalogue scheme is aimed at those who do not have ready access to a computer; it is part of the IT budget for postgraduate researchers. Approval is required from the supervisor (i.e. a case made for why it is needed). Email Lawrence Rabone, a PhD student who benefitted recently from this scheme, if you want advice on applying.
