Early Career Researchers

In this section, discover practical information, guidance and resources for early career researchers (ECRs) from all disciplines, following each stage of your research progression.

At »ÆÉ«¶ÌÊÓÆµ, ECR is defined as staff on a research-only contract at grades 6-8. This broadly encompasses research assistants, postdoctoral researchers, research fellows and senior research fellows. 

Here at the »ÆÉ«¶ÌÊÓÆµ Researcher School, we are dedicated to supporting the professional development of our ECRs. Our Researcher Development team provides training and development opportunities and advocates for improved career support and employment conditions for ECRs across the University, throughout their time at »ÆÉ«¶ÌÊÓÆµ.
