The Women in Research Network assists women researchers at UNSW to meet and connect with one another. Through a program of six specially designed research-focused sessions, network members are given strategic advice on how to  develop their research strategy, publish for maximum impact and promote their research ideas. These facilitated sessions provide women researchers with additional information on the support services available to UNSW staff to promote and advance their research careers

The Women in Research Network group comprises mid-career women researchers who:

  • have been in academic research roles for over 5 years
  • are looking for a supportive environment in which to test ideas and grow as researchers
  • value sharing experiences and strategies with women researchers from other disciplines
  • perceive that there are areas of professional challenge for which they would value guidance
  • are prepared to attend professional development events, and to both give and receive support from others (in formal and informal settings)

Registration

Any mid-career woman researcher (those appointed at level B,C,D or E) is eligible to join the Network.

To register as a member, please email Linda Coggiola via training [dot] rso [at] unsw [dot] edu [dot] au.   Events are for members only.
