Use of the Postdoc Centres
We consider room booking requests for events, meetings, networking, training/information sessions and supervisions. These should all be specific to the professional or career development of postdocs.
We can also consider bookings for events related to strategic University initiatives.
To make a request you must either be a postdoc at the University of Cambridge (or Partner Institute or College), a University service/department, or a recognised external provider, and your booking must meet the above criteria. You must notify us of any external speakers appearing at your event, as the University has a duty to report annually to the OfS on all events involving external speakers.
Our spaces cannot be used for private functions, parties, religious observance, political organising, or events with attendees under the age of 18. We do not permit the selling or resale of goods or services on our premises. We do not have a licence for public performances or screenings.
If your event will include the provision and/or consumption of alcohol, please review our alcohol policy here.
Hybrid events: we can provide a 'Meeting Owl', which integrates with Microsoft Teams to enable presenters or delegates to join your event remotely and have two-way dialogue with those attending in person. This should be tested in advance of your meeting.
Booking requests should be made at least two working days prior to the date of your event.
