“I am a member of the RSA because it offers unrivaled opportunities for networking and exchange of ideas for those interested in regional development issues. The level of academic debate in the RSA journals and at the RSA conferences is high, and the support for new member-driven ventures such as Research Networks on particular topics is a real bonus that helps to develop a vibrant and inclusive environment. And then, of course, issues of practical policy relevance are never far from RSA debates, something that makes the work of the Association relevant far beyond academia.”
Professor Henrik Halkier, Aalborg University, Denmark.
If you have received your PhD* certificate within the last 5 years, you can join as an Early Career member.
“My attendance at RSA conferences has been very productive, for myself personally and professionally, especially in terms of being able to network with people at a similar stage of career and similar research interests to me. [The RSRS Early Career mentored paper process] has been really supportive in developing my writing and confidence in submitting papers.”
Laura Norris, Early Career Researcher, Cardiff University, Wales
If you are currently completing your PhD (or Masters) course, you can join as a Student member.
“I am very glad to be a member of the RSA. Your support for my research as a Ph.D. student via the European Week of Regions and Cities, the RSA Blog and the upcoming RSA conferences are invaluable motivations and more than appreciated by my side.”
Irmak Çağlı, PhD student, Bogazici University, Turkey
If your organisation is actively involved in regional development, research and policies (managing authorities, university departments, institutes, think tanks, consultancies and the like), and there are several people who wish to take advantage of our membership benefits, then you can join as a Corporate member.
