There are lots of opportunities and resources for ECRs, both internally and externally. This ECR website contains information and resources that ECRs will find useful, as well as links to other platforms that have been developed. You will find news about events and training that take place internally at the University of Brighton, tips about developing your research and your professional profile, both within the academy and beyond.
Being an ECR is exciting and full of opportunities, but it can also be challenging to navigate in highly competitive academic environments. As ECR Ambassador, I hope to strengthen the ECR Network with representation from both postdocs and PhD students, across schools, and to develop a platform to share inspiration and practical advise.
If you identify as ECR, regardless if you are part-time, full-time, with a permanent contract, or a fixed-time contract, please get in touch to let me know if you would like to be part of the ECR network.
Best wishes,
Dr Aristea Fotopoulou
ECR Ambassador 2018
