Careers of researchers & HR

The Careers of researchers & HR Policy Group provides a forum for Vice-Rectors, HR Directors and senior management responsible for research careers to discuss trends and developments in research careers at LERU universities and at the EU policy level. The group works on topics such as research assessment, career structure, recruitment and progression, professional development, employability and destinations outside of academia, the European Research Area (ERA), HRS4R, and more. They usually meet twice a year as a plenary.

Relevant LERU publications are the position papers “A Pathway towards Multidimensional Academic Careers" and “Delivering talent: Careers of researchers inside and outside academia”.
