OECD-EU Research and Development Careers Survey 2026 OECD-EU Research and Development Careers Survey 2026

 

Policy debates about R&D careers draw on case studies and personal accounts, but survey data from the people working in R&D is scarce. As someone working the cutting edge of R&D, your experiences and perspectives will help policymakers and employers make better-informed decisions about R&D careers. Thank you for taking the time to share them.

To maintain the integrity of the survey and ensure that responses genuinely reflect the experiences of research and development professionals, we provide two options for respondents to authenticate themselves.  

A first option is to authenticate through your Open Researcher and Contributor ID (ORCID), if you have one or wish to create one. Authentication using ORCID adds considerable value to your contribution to this survey, connecting your public research record to your responses and allowing the OECD to develop more insightful analysis to inform policy and practice relating to your career. 

A second option is to request the survey link to be sent to you by email. Please choose from your preferred option below.  

 

ORCID-based authentication (recommended)

Click here to join the survey by connecting your existing ORCID iD or registering if necessary:

Register or Connect your ORCID iD

By allowing us to collect your ORCID iD we can limit duplicate respondents and spare you a number of verification steps in getting access to the survey.

 

Email-based authentication

If you prefer not to connect or register an ORCID iD, you also have the option to receive the survey link by email. In this case, additional verification questions will be asked in the survey.
