The Scottish Graduate School of Social Science (SGSSS) (https://www.sgsss.ac.uk/) is a partnership between 16 Scottish Universities to offer funding, training and support for PhD in Social Sciences. This includes PhD places, an annual programme of training workshops and annual programme of events including student induction, summer school, collaboration showcase, student symposium and hub festivals.

This project will complete a business analysis review of the current systems and processes used in SGSSS to manage student recruitment and relationship management. The project will deliver an option review and recommendation on a replacement system to support SGSSS in PhD recruitment, student record keeping and relationship management.
