Want to explore a career beyond academia?
Explore is a program close to my heart. It’s what I wished was around when I finished my PhD and was figuring out what to do with my life!
The Explore Program aims to support those who know they don’t want to be an academic researcher but are not sure what their transferrable skills are, what their natural talents are, or what they really want to do…
Who is it for?
This Program is suitable for anyone who wants to explore their career options post-PhD.
All career stages welcome but we are targeting recent PhD graduates and early career researchers who have decided that academia is not for them.
You know I’ve been there, and I want to share my insights and help you reflect on all that you are and all you want to be….
Discover your true career path
At Empirical Careers we want to help you explore the post-PhD possibilities most suited to you.
For those not sure what to do next… we know you are highly competent (you finished a PhD didn’t you?!) and we know your research skills are highly transferrable, the question is, what do you want to do? What impact do you want to have? What would you most enjoy?!
Explore will help you discover new insights about yourself to find the work that lights you up and helps you find a meaningful career path.
