These workshops have been tailored to address the main challenges faced by many academics, from social media ethics and codes of conduct to implementation strategies for posting research online and ways for creating meaningful industry links and collaborations.

Each session is designed to equip academics with the practical techniques and learnings they require so they can confidently raise awareness of their work and increase citations and profile using social media.

The workshops will feature speakers both from outside of the sector, providing an expert perspective on using social media for research purposes, as well as the University's very own academics who are utilising social media to raise awareness of their research.
