This unit aims to provide you with an understanding of the patterns of research career development, and of the principles and mechanisms of careerself-management. It aims to assist you to develop the analytical approaches to professional development needs of researchers, and the personal skills of effective presentation to employers at various levels in the research and research management fields.
