Hello
Are you an MA, MSc, PhD or Postdoc interested in a career as an
academic lecturer in social policy? If so you may be interested in a

Excellence in Preparing for Academic Practice.
Established academics Professor Nick Ellison, Lynn McAlpine and Mark
Monaghan will begin the day by discussing their understanding of the
term ?academic practice?. There will also be plenty of time available

available to academics.
