Most young researchers face the big question of whether to pursue a career in academia, or to take the leap and pursue opportunities in industry/public sector. This pivotal question often comes with a range of emotions, uncertainties, and big decisions.

This event will focus on the key considerations involved in deciding which paths to pursue, and we will explore the different factors that are essential when choosing between staying in academia or transitioning to a career beyond academia. We will discuss the difference between academia and industry, and you will be working with understanding your values and drivers so that you can make decisions that match who you are and how you would like your future work-life to be.

 

This event is for both PhD students and Junior Researchers at AU.
