Post-doctoral career pathways in Law can be as varied as the PhD topic areas and the candidates pursuing them. Whether you are interested in an academic career, moving into practice, or doing something altogether different, this event will highlight some of the career options that are available to you.
Join us on 12th March, 2024 for a half-day national conference organised by the Institute of Advanced Legal Studies, University of London and the School of Advanced Study Careers Service, as we explore a wide range of jobs that draw on your skills, knowledge and passion from your Law PhD. In this FREE virtual event (from 14:00 to 17:00, with breaks), you will have the opportunity to ask questions and learn from industry and career experts, Law PhD alumni and current students:
• How to develop and communicate your transferable skills
• How to explore a wider range of viable career options
• How to enter and progress in professions such as legal practice, government legal services, international organisations, non-governmental organisations and academia.
