We are happy to announce the next Career Planning Workshop “What to do with a PhD?” for late-stage PhD students and early postdocs.
Date: Tuesday, 10 September 2013, 9-17 o’clock
Place: GZMB building, seminar room 0.232
Duration: 1 day
Goal: Getting to know about professional perspectives and reflecting about own suitability to different career paths
The workshop deals with what career means and which personal career objectives matter. Participants are introduced to different science-related career paths in the public sector (including universities, but not restricted to) and private enterprises, and which technical and personal skills matter, respectively. Moreover, participants get the opportunity to reflect their own competences and objectives as well as their suitability to these different career paths. Finally, participants develop an individual strategy for their next career steps.
Registration:
