Few people set out for a career in human research protections; many of
us found ourselves here by accident or on the way to something else.
Whatever the route, many of us have found our careers in human research
protections to be personally rewarding, with unexpected opportunities
for learning, teaching, and creative problem-solving. This session shares perspectives from three HRP professionals, each representing
different roles and organizational structures, about the joy (and
challenges) of working in this field, and what can a career in human
research protections can look like.
Learning Objectives:
- Share experiences on career progression and the opportunities we have sought (or created!) to advance in the field
- Explore how engagement with the HRP community can enhance your experience in the field
- Discuss opportunities to engage more fully with the HRP community, including networking, mentorship, and membership in professional associations
- Review and apply career-mapping tools
