Welsh Crucible is an award-winning programme of personal, professional and leadership development for the future research leaders of Wales. It aims to help participants to discover:
– how other early- to mid-career researchers in other disciplines are tackling the same issues as them; – how they can transfer their knowledge to the public sphere to make an impact; – the skills and attitudes that are likely to make their research more innovative; – how thinking creatively can make a difference to their work and career.
Funded by a consortium of Welsh higher education institutions and the Higher Education Funding Council for Wales, Welsh Crucible brings together thirty researchers to explore how they can work together to tackle the current research challenges facing Wales.
