Careers in Life Sciences Project




    Skills   Hiring
      Mobility
                  Experiences
CiLS Project: International science
                    careers survey
1. A systematic assessment of skills, experiences
   and mobility for a career in the life sciences
2. Not hypothesis driven, discovery based
   research
3. Resource guide for career planning, to get on
   the right track for both scientists and
   companies
CiLS: example of outcomes
Careers: most interest is clearly linked to research in life
  sciences

Overall, life scientists have a strong interest in working
  abroad

Career concerns are the primary driver, followed by more
  general conditions in the country the person is moving
  to. Work possibilities for partner are very important if
  married/living with partner.

Companies show strong interest in people combining
  scientific with non-scientific skills (managerial
  skills, sales).
Did you know?
                 Companies most value creative and analytical
  thinking, work experience in the field, graduate research
      topic and grades from graduated degree when hiring!

  processing of the research                                   agreements
  outcome



People and ideas are key elements in the development of a vibrant and agile economy. Industry can also
      benefit greatly by developing relationships with early stage researchers and their academic research
      institutions as a means of maximizing exposure to new ideas and the potential for innovation.
                                             IRCSET
It's important to allow industry to have a certain amount of control over the project. It's vital to have a
      minimum time that the student must spend on the company premises.                  EPSRC
Try to aim for long term programmes, at least 5 years long. Try to harmonize and not to fragment
     administrative procedures. Facilitate the establishment of foreign researchers within the country (also by
     unifying the degree system in Europe).                           IKERTU
