Research Leadership Package
On this page you’ll find a package of development opportunities to support research leaders at Leeds to allow you to reflect and plan for your individual development needs. It brings together a range of existing and new opportunities and we will continue to add to this in future.
The package is designed for current and aspiring principal investigators (PIs), those looking to build and develop research groups and collaborations, and those taking on university research leadership roles such as Director of Research and Innovation within a school.
