Recurring Academic Posts
Recurring academic posts are designed to facilitate accessibility to research opportunities for registrars who have had limited exposure to a research environment. These new posts are aimed at providing an opportunity for registrar researchers to be part of an existing research project. It is anticipated that inexperienced research registrars will show greater interest in academic posts by removing the need for them to develop their own research project.
Registrars interested in developing their own research projects with institutions advertising recurring posts should contact the relevant department contacts (as listed on the project profiles) to discuss their research topics. Registrars should note that they will need to apply on an Academic Posts (standard) application form for self-identified research topics.
