Careers in Research Administration
Tuesday, April 8 | 1 to 3 pm | Foothills Campus - HSC O1500
Changes in the research funding landscape have led universities to increase their investment in resources to manage the research process. Research administration, and the varied career opportunities within, has become the key mechanism for delivering research goals. Unlike many careers, there is no standard career path for university research administrators, but one thing is certain: holding a graduate degree and being involved in the research enterprise from a trainee perspective makes you a hot commodity for these positions. We will cover a range of topics related to research administration, and will also focus on the potential training and qualifications that are available from varied professional associations.
