This workshop is aimed at part-time researchers, whether postdoctoral research staff or postgraduate researchers. It has been organized to assist in addressing the needs and issues that can arise through the part-time researcher experience.
The workshop's aims are to give part-time researchers the time and space to share and discuss, with peers and academics from outside their supervisory arrangements, what research is and how its quality is assessed. The workshop will deliver some succinct training in a range of key areas relevant to part-time researchers.
The workshop will include:
- Part-time Success Stories
- The Ethos and Process of Part-time Research
- Getting the best from a part time supervisor
- Making progress: Avoiding defeatism and self sabotage
