Enabling our
people to thrive
Rooted in collaboration, the White Rose University Consortium is a strategic partnership between the Universities of Leeds, Sheffield, and York.
We're the only university consortium in the country focused entirely on people development, supporting colleagues across academic and professional services.
We offer tailored support and cross-institutional initiatives, so everyone has a fair path to develop and progress.
By pooling the strength of three universities, we go further than any one institution could alone.



Apply now: Prosper development programme
Prosper is a free, cross-institutional programme specifically designed for postdocs ready to take control of their career development.
You will engage in three in-person workshops, each hosted at a different White Rose partner institution (Leeds, Sheffield and York), covering essential career development topics that will enable you to reflect, explore and act. Attendance at all three days is mandatory.
The programme is designed to help you gain the tools and confidence to identify your strengths, set career goals, and navigate your career path.
We support professional services colleagues and researchers from our partner universities, from postgraduate researchers and postdocs to fellows and academics.
