    ECSB Career Mentoring is aimed at early and mid-career researchers.

    Academic careers are becoming increasingly complex, dynamic and international. Demands on academics for publishing, raising funding and providing high quality teaching are increasing, and academics need to adjust by carefully contemplating and planning their careers, activities and work-life balance. In the ECSB Career Mentoring Programme, we help researchers navigate their career challenges by having experienced researchers and professors advise you on your personal career development for six months. A mentor supports you by listening to you, discussing your personal goals with you, providing encouragement, information and contacts. Mentoring can assist you with assessing your experiences and achievements and considering your future options and choices.


    Who can apply? Early career researchers who (preferably) have finalized their doctoral studies within 8 years priorto the application deadline or are in the process of finalising in the year of application. Mid-career researchers who i) have finalized their doctoral studies 9 years or more prior to the application deadline and ii) have been employed in an academic institution for more than 6 years.


    Am I eligible? In order to be eligible, you need to be an ECSB member – in case you are not a member you can apply for membership HERE.


    Where can I apply? Complete the application HERE  and send a short CV to ECSB Secretariat (info@ecsb.org). Once your assignment is finished, ECSB will ask you for some feedback, so that we can learn from your experiences. Deadline for applications: November 1st.
