Symposium Format
The activities for this symposium are designed to ensure that each day is as interactive and informative as possible for all attendees. The main sessions on the day will be:
Workshops
Experienced academics will give a short presentation followed by break-out small group discussions and the opportunity for attendees to ask questions leading to an interactive discussion on a range of issues. There will be four workshops over the course of the 2 days on the following topics:
· The PhD Journey: hacking your travel through the academy
· How to get published and keep publishing
· Alt-ac Careers: Planning for a successful career outside academia
· The academic marketplace: surviving and thriving in the first (associate) lectureship position
· Time for reflection and writing
Paper presentations
Participants with accepted papers will present their research in a paper session. The plan is to have all presentations in a plenary session rather than parallel sessions. This means that each presenter has a room full of listeners. Each presenter will be allotted 15 minutes to present their work and respond to any queries.
