Career stories?

The career stories portal of Vitae (see our article published in september 2008), aims to demonstrate how the story tellers have applied their doctoral training in a wide range of personal and professional contexts.

In the section "Career stories / What do researchers do? ", you can check out a collection of 40 career profiles which provides insights into the paths that doctoral graduates take.
Testimonies are classified by discipline: Arts & humanities ; Biological sciences ; Biomedical sciences ; Physical sciences ; Social sciences.

Furthermore, Vitae in collaboration with icould, a web free resource, is undertaking a pilot project to produce around 20 films of the career stories of people with a research background, currently working within and outside High Education.
These videos will be available next Autumn, but you can already see a demonstration
