In our rapidly evolving global economy, the scientific workforce is going to have an increasing influence over industries, economies, and societies. Early Career Researchers (ECRs), encompassing Ph.D. graduates and post-doctoral academics, are expected to possess specialised skill sets crucial for leading the 21st century. These skills mainly include critical thinking, problem-solving, and domain expertise. However, a prevalent concern is the disparity between their profound domain knowledge and their practical skills sought after by employers across industry, governance, and academia. Recognising this disparity, there is a pressing need to develop a comprehensive up-skilling program tailored to equip these individuals with the practical skills demanded by employers in diverse professional settings.
Based on insights obtained from various stakeholders, including early career researchers, academicians, and industry leaders/startup founders, the iRISE Early Career Researcher Capacity Building Program has been developed that aims to support universities and research organisations towards development of multi-talented world-class researchers who can efficiently work in both academic and industry settings.
iRISE Early Career Researcher Capacity Building Program comprises of three levels:
