Part Time Researcher Conference 201125 August 2011

Event overview

The Vitae Scotland and Northern Ireland Hub, in partnership with Universities across the region, are delighted to announce the second Part-Time Researcher Conference.

Building on the success of the 2010 Part Time Researcher Conference, this event will provide researchers with the opportunity to network with colleagues from diverse research areas and universities; develop professional skills; consider future careers; and receive valuable advice, support and information from service providers at universities across Scotland and Northern Ireland.

The main activities of the day will be a series of participatory workshops on training and development themes, delivered by specialist HEI staff tailored to part-time researcher needs.  An extended networking lunch with information stands from a wide range of relevant providers and a networking reception will complete the day.

Participants from the event last year were very positive about the value of the event: 

"It was fun to come have a day out that was still 'on topic'"

"(the day provided) A range of strategies for part time working"

ALL participants will be part -time researchers at universities across Scotland and Northern Ireland.  This includes those registered for professional doctorates or distance learning research degrees.
