We would like to invite all research staff at BU to the third meeting of the recently formed Research Staff Association (RSA), on Wednesday 10th June from 3-4pm in S219.
This meeting will provide research staff with an opportunity to hear about the Concordat to Support the Career Development of Researchers, as well as network with other researchers and feedback any comments or concerns.
We are also delighted that Dr Zoe Sheppard, from the Faculty of Health and Social Science, will be joining us as our Guest Speaker talking about her career progression at BU.
Refreshments will be available so please confirm your attendance by email to: rhurst@bournemouth.ac.uk
We look forward to meeting you.
