Course in Research Leadership 2015-2016

10 April 2015

This autumn a leadership program will be offered for researchers early in their careers. The program aims to provide an active targeted skills and career support to researchers with the aim of becoming successful researchers and scientific leaders at Umeå University.

Based on the document "Umeå University 2020 - Vision and Objectives", the University has the ambition to develop into an internationally prominent university for education and research, and also play a strong role in terms of regional development.

Researchers at the University must dare to take risks that allow for ground-breaking research and can lead to an increase in knowledge. A factor, which will strongly contribute to this, will be our career structure and career options being internationally attractive in terms of resources and stability.

Therefore, activities that support careers are to be implemented, both on a faculty and central level. The currently planned education initiative is an activity, which is being carried out at central level.

Applications should be submitted no later than April 24, 2015 to the faculty office.
