Are you considering an academic career? In this seminar we will hear from a small panel of early- to mid-career academics in temporary and tenured positions about their day-to-day roles, how they manage a work-life balance, and opportunities for progression. This is a chance to ask questions and generate discussion on many aspects of being an academic.

All welcome and feel free to bring your lunch.
