Early Career Researcher Board

The aim of EPICUR’s Early-Career Research Board is to bring their perspectives to our different decision bodies, to help us steer the direction of our research-related activities.

A board filled with motivated early career researchers to develop intercultural exchanges

The Early Career Researchers Board (ECR Board / ECRB) of EPICUR is the voice of early career researchers (ECRs) within the Alliance. The ECR Board is composed of two representatives from each partner university.

The ECR Board members have an advisory (and steering) role, as consulting members on the EPICUR Management Board and Executive Board and full members in the Committees. The incorporation of their viewpoints enhances contributions, shapes opportunities tailored to the needs and preferences of ECRs and aides in identifying creative solutions.
