The Postdoc Academy runs Welcome Events for all new postdocs - whether your contract is with the University, a Partner Institute or a College.
At these Postdoc Welcome Events, you are given information about the wide range of opportunities and services available within Cambridge - and specifically how they can help you as a postdoc.
There is also an opportunity to talk directly to representatives from these services and to other new postdocs.
The services cover:
- Support related to your research
- Career development and support beyond your research
- HR and other contract and employment-related matters
- Postdoc clubs, societies and sport
- Living and family life in Cambridge
