A new study has been launched at Oxford Brookes University in partnership with the British Academy of Management and the UKRI EDI Caucus to understand the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the career life cycle of early career academics (ECAs).
The study is led by Dr Beldina Owalla , Senior Lecturer in Business and Management with co-investigators Dr Elvis Nyanzu, Research Fellow and Professor Tim Vorley, Pro Vice Chancellor and Dean of Oxford Brookes Business School.
This survey is part of a study aimed at providing a comprehensive understanding of the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the experiences and career development of Early Career Academics (ECAs).
In examining the experiences of ECAs during and since the pandemic, the research will engage with questions of workload, mental well-being, job-security, and management support. These insights will be useful in helping us understand the impact of the pandemic on ECAs and to develop recommendations on best practices to support ECAs career progression, as well create a more inclusive research and innovation environment.
