Karriereforum

Career planning in academia and business
What are the next steps after the Postdoc phase? What career options do I have as a postdoctoral researcher? Which funding program would be suitable for my next research project? The Karriereforum for postdocs is all about your individual career planning.
What does Karriereforum offer?
Taking the next steps in your postdoctoral career, the Karriereforum provides you with hands-on experience: For one day, renowned experts will offer input on university and non-university research careers or aspects of research funding, and answer your questions. You can also get advice on personal career strategies in confidential consultations.
The Karriereforum takes place twice a year and deals alternately with the following topics:
- Research careers:
Here, for example, you will receive information and advice on appointment procedures at universities and universities of applied sciences, moving into non-academic research, and other alternative career fields for researchers. - Research funding:
The focus will be, among others, on the German funding landscape, selected funding programs and the acquisition of third-party funding.
The included networking lunch gives you the opportunity to exchange experiences with other postdocs and to expand your interdisciplinary network within the University Alliance Ruhr.
Who can participate?
Postdoctoral researchers of all fields of Ruhr-Universität Bochum, TU Dortmund University, and University Duisburg-Essen.

Next date: The next Karriereforum will take place on 29 September 2022.
Details on the group discussions and the individual consultations will be available here from summer 2022.
Information on the registration phase will be published here during the summer of 2022.
