AB This article presents a literature review of academic research careers in universities. An exhaustive bibliometric analysis of academic research careers was conducted to reveal the major trends and themes regarding the topic. The authors engaged with 191 published documents generated via Web of Science. Bibliometric indicators, such as authors, journals, years, and countries, were used in the analysis. Science mapping analyses, such as keyword co-occurrence and bibliographic coupling, were also performed using the VOSviewer. This article contributes to the literature by categorizing and systematizing the existing literature on academic research careers and proposing areas for further research. These findings could benefit researchers, as well as practitioners in academia, by revealing the most relevant and critical areas of study regarding the topic of academic research careers.
