hello, am going to be taking my phd as well as teaching at one of the uni of london campus. we are having a research training programme next week. what should i wear? i only have jeans and sporty clothes. is that ok, considering that they expect me not to just be a student but also to teach? its my first job, so excuse me the question sounds silly!!! should i go off and get a suit, dress, skirt???? help!!!

I don't think you need to dress too smartly, maybe get yourself some black trousers, a blouse and some flat soled shoes (for comfort). Just go smart casual. Then after the first day, if everyone else is wearing jeans then you wear what you would feel most comfy in

thanks!

No problems, I hope it all works out well for you
