Early Career Network
The EC Network helps early-career academics establish a research identity to achieve their career potential and sustain their wellbeing through a friendly community, networking and tailored support.
We have a flexible and informal structure coordinated by an enthusiastic chair where we:
- create a supportive network of ECRs and more established academics that fosters the development of skills needed to achieve career goals
- provide guidance around publication and funding opportunities
- offer a safe place for discussion that can enhance the wellbeing and connectedness of ECRs
- build a thriving research community that enables knowledge exchange between ECRs and the local community to enhance research impact.
