Promote Yourself

EMCRAs are encouraged to highlight publications or achievements that can be shared to the wider EMCRA community and on the EMCRA LinkedIn for promotional use.

Share your achievements using the Promote Yourself form.

Promotions

We realised that many of the EMCRs applicants don't know the pathways that will lead them to get a promotion. To help you plan and manage your academic career, we listed here some websites that can help you to find the information you need.
