Research Community
With our research community, we aim to promote collaboration and solidarity among early researchers. We offer two schemes of cooperation for that purpose:
If you would like to provide advice for more junior researchers select Peer coach below. If you're keen to receive advice from someone more senior then select Peer advisee. You can also select both categories if you want to help and be helped!
With our research community, we aim to promote collaboration and solidarity among early researchers. We offer two schemes of cooperation for that purpose:
- Peer-coaching scheme: The main task of the peer-coaching programme is to establish communication between a person just starting the road and the coach who has recently passed that same road. Early researchers often struggle with many challenges of academia, either a small matter of conduct in the academic community or significant trouble with their research. By pairing researchers in this way, we hope to facilitate the delivery of tailored advice and help to ultimately promote progress in academic research amongst early-stage researchers.
- Focused-research groups: With focused research groups we aim to provide a closer community that allows Postgraduate Researchers to build up peer networks and engage in various possible collaborations. Research groups (limited to 15 people) meet regularly (every two weeks) to exchange ideas and share advice and experiences. We hope for the groups to multiply and become more subject-focused as our junior research community grows. Each group has a coach to arrange the meeting and lead the discussion. However, all members are expected to participate in discussion and organisation.
