Thought you might all be interested to hear that Vitae are running a free one day event about careers in academia for postgraduate researchers on the 30th of March in Manchester.

Are you considering your career options? Are you thinking about where you'd like to be... next year... in five years time? Do you want to continue working in an academic environment?

Around half all postgraduate researchers take up jobs within the education sector immediately on graduation but not all of those are in research positions.
Following the success of our previous Careers in academia events, Vitae is another one-day Careers in academia event on the 30th March, to explore what a career in the academic environment is really like.

Like most careers, there are many elements that make up a career in academia, and you need specific skills to succeed in what can be a very competitive environment. Here's your chance to find out what really is involved, what skills and strengths it will take to succeed, and to decide if this is the career for you.

I have been to one of these and I have to say it was well worth the time! Very informative and lots of useful exercise (e.g., interview and CV workshops). Would recommend. (up)
