The QES project and developing my career
With the Team
At the Parliament Hill with my fellow QES-AS- WA scholars
The QES project has enabled me to develop my university education and my research skills with a view to facilitating my professional integration. I’ve had the opportunity to get in touch with other researchers to share knowledge and discover new research methods and techniques.
As a researcher at the start of her career, the knowledge and skills acquired on this programme will be essential for securing my career path and my academic distinction for employability purposes. The QES project has helped to strengthen my expertise and my confidence in becoming a qualified research scientist in several areas of research. I also hope that it will help me to expand my professional networks for future project collaborations.
