Research Networks

There are several cross School and College networks and external networks that aim to bring together researchers working on similar research topics.

All the above Research Networks do great work, do you want to know more?

Are you unsure what the different networks do, what events/initiatives they run, who they're for and how you could get involved? 

We have a couple of case studies from the different research networks, to provide you with further information:

Learned Societies

The learned society or professional association related to you research area may offer funding for travel or research, organise training or development courses, run series of events or be able to provide career support.
