The Berlin University Alliance Postdoc Academy - Kick-off Event
(https://www.berlin-university-alliance.de/en/commitments/promoting-talent/postdoc-academy/index.html) is coming to YOU!
Join your fellow postdocs from across the BUA partner universities for the Postdoc Academy Kick-Off Event on April 26th at the ‘Festsaal’ of Humboldt Universität zu Berlin, Humboldt Graduate School, Luisenstr. 56. You can find the program here: www.berlin-university-alliance.de/en/commitments/promoting-talent/postdoc-academy/_inhaltselemente/1Program-Kick-Off-Postdoc-Academy.pdf
The Postdoc Academy is designed to support you in your career development, particularly if you are in the first years of your postdoc, and to connect you with fellow postdocs in the Berlin research community. This day will be dedicated to the subject 'Postdocs and Careers' and will also provide a valuable opportunity for all BUA postdocs to connect with one another and interact with our inspiring guests. In addition, we will provide you with a glimpse into the future of the Postdoc Academy and show how you can profit from this program.
We understand that as a Postdoc your time is precious and that you have many projects to juggle. Hence, we strive to deliver value for your time and energy. The Postdoc Academy is tailored to your needs and we strongly encourage you to make suggestions to help further its development.
