International Day of Women and Girls in Science
Meet a Scientist
Are you a female student interested in a scientific career?
In the exchange format "Meet a Scientist," you can meet scientists online who will provide insights into their work and career paths.
Meet a Scientist is a two-hour virtual format aimed at female BA and MA students interested in a career as a scientist. This event will provide space for addressing urging questions such as: What topics occupy a scientist’s daily life? How does one become a professor? What scientific fields are there? How can the profession be balanced with leisure and family? What challenges arise in everyday academic life? What support services are available for women in science? How inclusive is the academic system?
After an initial introduction, the event will offer an opportunity for a "speed-dating" exchange with PhD-holding scientists. Additionally, the event provides a platform for networking among prospective PhD students and those who have already completed their doctoral studies.
The event is part of the programme for the International Day of Women and Girls in Science.
Target group: female BA and MA students
The event will be moderated in English but there will be an opportunity to discuss and ask questions in German.
Please register via the registration form by 5 February 2025.
