Target Audience: Research Staff new to the University or new to a Research Staff role

This is a live in-person event.

Research staff induction is targeted at Research Staff new to Strathclyde or new to a Research Staff role at Strathclyde.  It will provide an introduction to the support and opportunities available to help you in your current role and support your career development as well as an opportunity to meet some other Researchers.

It is recommended that you attend this induction even if you have completed a doctorate at Strathclyde because the support teams and development opportunities available to you as a member of staff are different.

It is advised Research Staff also attend the general New Staff Induction which provides a broad overview of the University.

Please note that the Research Staff Induction runs three times a year and registration onto the course should occur automatically for new Research Staff. If you'd like to make sure to be booked onto the next induction session or would like to find out more about future induction dates, please contact spiral@strath.ac.uk

In preparation for this event, please also check out Strathclyde’s online research staff induction where you’ll find an overview of some of the key services and processes you should know about as a researcher:
