Early Career Researchers

Our goal is to help shape the next generation of CCS leaders.


We do this with a programme of funding and training opportunities.

UKCCSRC Early Career Researcher (ECR) Programme

The UKCCSRC ECR programme provides training, funding and networking opportunities for our ECR members, supporting researchers training for academic careers, and for futures outside academia. We run development Awaydays, ECR funding calls and we facilitate interdisciplinary networking and other ECR activities.
