Calling for Recruitment: ICOM UK Student and Emerging Professionals

ICOM UK Student and Emerging Professionals Working Group is a project initiated from the meeting ‘Career challenges facing Students and Early Career Professionals’ in ICOM UK’s 2022 Working Internationally Conference ‘Cynefin: Museum Practice for Future Generations’, in which challenges and psychological discrepancies many students and emerging professionals face when they first enter the cultural sector.

Since April 2022, we have organised a series of events for students and emerging professionals. This platform aims to bring together the younger generation from museum and cultural studies, sharing ideas, collaborating on projects and reshaping the border of the museum industry.

To support the International Council of Museums(ICOM)’s engagement with younger generations, we welcome all people, regardless of their personal fields, to create this community together, including different voices, sharing research progress and developing cooperative projects.

We are recruiting new members to join the Working Group, please fill out the form if you are interested, shortlisted candidates will be contacted individually by 20th April, for an interview. Successful applicants are expected to be on board from May 2024.

The personal data you provided in this form will be only used for organising student events and won’t be circulated beyond ICOM UK’s community. Thank you very much and looking forward to working with you in the future.
