Are you doing your doctoral research on higher education or do you otherwise consider yourself as an early-career higher education researcher focusing on Finnish higher education in one way or another? Do you wish to connect with others who identify as “Finland-based” early-career higher education researchers? If so, we would love to get to know you!

ECR news
Early career researchers, how are you doing in academia today and in the future?
In this post we explore the wellbeing of early career researchers working in Finland, based on discussions at the CHERIF Symposium in 2023.
About us
Finnish-based early-career higher education researchers are an interdisciplinary group of master’s students, doctoral researchers, and postdoctoral researchers who are studying Finnish higher education. Most of us are also based at a Finnish university, but that is not required. This informal subgroup of CHERIF was established in spring 2021 and has around 40 members.
Our planned activities include:
- Informal, monthly morning coffee breaks, during which we discuss research-related issues
- Reading groups
- Webinars and mini-symposia meant specifically for early-career researchers
- Any other activities that support early-career researchers in doing research and planning their future careers, whether in academia or elsewhere
If you would like to join the group or have any questions regarding the group or its activities, please contact Melina Aarnikoivu (melina.aarnikoivu @ gmail.com).
