Advancing in Academia

The Advancing in Academia programme is a highly rewarding one-day event that encourages participants to consider their career path and provides guidance on how to succeed in a competitive and complex research environment. The event is aimed at early career researchers and enables them to: • meet with successful academics from a range of disciplines to hear how they advanced their academic career and to seek career advice • consider how to balance the requirements of improving their skills and achievements with building their professional profile • review the current higher education environment • review their own career path and develop an action plan to strategically manage their career • network with fellow researchers.
