Strategy
Do you want to start a new research project after concluding your current project, or do you intend to continue your career outside the UG? And how can you increase the chances of your research being nominated for a prize? The UG informs and supports researchers as they reach the end phase of their research.
Looking ahead
What will you do after your research? Do you want to continue working in academia and explore your options for another research project? Or would you rather continue your career elsewhere, start your own company, or work for the government perhaps? The UG is there to help researchers explore their research and career options and prepare for a successful next step in their professional or academic career.
