Career Paths in New Zealand Polar Research
| Workshop for students and early career polar researchersMonday, 30th June 2008University of Otago |  |
As part of the Antarctica New Zealand’s Annual Conference, a morning
workshop is being held for students and early career polar researchers
to provide an informal venue for this group to network. The workshop
will take the form of a panel discussion, drawing on the experience of
Antarctic scientists at various stages in their careers to talk openly
about the challenges and rewards of career paths in polar research.
The focus will be on the transition from student to PI and how this
process is supported in New Zealand. This is a great opportunity to
make contacts with other students as well as established polar experts,
and to share and form new ideas about how to continue our careers in
the Polar Regions.
Registration for the workshop will begin in
May as part of the registration process for Antarctica New Zealand’s
Annual Conference. All welcome from students to established
scientists. For more information about the workshop, please contact Mélianie Raymond or visit http://www.antarcticanz.govt.nz/article/10566.html#19289/
In association with APECS, Antarctica New Zealand, and the University of Otago Polar Environments Research Theme.
