The GSI Postgraduate and Early Career Network aims to:

  • represent postgraduate students and early career researchers at GSI board and related meetings, as well as more widely within academia;
  • circulate information about events, grants and funding opportunities, job vacancies, career training, or any other information that may be relevant to postgraduate students and early career researchers;
  • facilitate and organise networking events and training workshops for the postgraduate and early career research community;
  • provide career-development opportunities to postgraduates and early career researchers who want to organise academic events and workshops, or through participating in the committee of the group.​​
