Know your competencies – find your job: job search for scientists (February 4-5, 2019)

Careers in German universities and research institutes are difficult. Towards the end of your PhD or at the beginning of your postdoctoral years you need to decide whether you like to continue your career up to the professor or if you leave academia and public funded research institutes. This step is difficult to the biggest part of PhD-students because until then they did not find or try alternative career paths.

In the workshop participants learnt to go the different steps of job search: to be aware of their competencies, skills and knowledge and to build their career strategies based on them.

[PhD initiative at UL]: Workshop on Stress Management (October 13, 2018)

We experience stress every day, but how do we cope with it? Living in a new country, work-life balance, other factors and of course Ph.D. itself bring a lot of stressful thoughts. During the workshop, participants learnt the main techniques of relaxation, analyze the current causes of stress and developing their own strategy of stress management.

Target audience

Doctoral students and postdocs

Course objectives:

Participants learnt the most used relaxation techniques and develop their stress management strategies. Continue reading “[PhD initiative at UL]: Workshop on Stress Management (October 13, 2018)”
