Careers, education & training (SoAR)

Southampton Academy of Research (SoAR) is a career support service for our medical and health researchers.

 

SoAR provides support for those employed by University Hospital Southampton and the University of Southampton to explore and pursue a career that incorporates health-related research. 

 

They can guide you through your options in research, signpost to people who can offer advice or be a mentor, and highlight events, funding and training opportunities. In addition, SoAR delivers its own events and training courses, both independently and in partnership with the BRC and other local NIHR infrastructure.

​

​SoAR help staff working in a wide range of health-related careers, including nurses, doctors, midwives, allied health professionals, pharmacists and scientists. 

​

If you would like more information on how you can develop your research career and the opportunities available to you, please visit the SoAR website, email soar@uhs.nhs.uk, or sign up to SoAR's mailing list.
