CANCELLED! After the PhD - How to survive as a scientist

Course

Start date: Monday 20 October 2025

Time: 09.00

End date: Wednesday 19 November 2025

Time: 15.00

Location: Zoom

This course aims to prepare PhD students in biology for life after the dissertation. 

The course will cover the academic career (postdoc and early career grant applications) and the non-academic job market. Furthermore, you will find out tips and tricks on how to improve your Linkedin profile for professional development. The format is weekly interactive seminars IRL or over Zoom that involve invited speakers and interactions with the other course participants. In addition to seminar attendance, participants will also prepare and submit assignments. The course involves the preparation of a personal career plan that in detail outlines the steps required for taking the next career step.

Priority will be given to PhD students with 50% or less left of their studies. Applicants from outside of the Biology section at SU are welcome if space allows.

For more details, see schedule.
