STEM-doctoral candidates”
The Graduate Academy will
be hosting a new mentoring programme. The programme
“Career-Mentoring for STEM-doctoral candidates” seeks
to support doctoral candidates in natural and life
sciences preparing for a career in industry and
society. They will receive individual mentoring by
experienced people working in industry and society,
who successfully built a career outside academia after
their doctorate and are now willing to share their
knowledge and experience. The mentoring programme is
part of the project “Natural sciences in industry and
society”, funded by the Joachim Herz Foundation.
Applications will be possible from 4 May to 1 June
2020 via the FSU
