Workshop

During the Career College, you will have the opportunity to ask questions and discuss topics with panel members, such as: 

  • What is the difference between research within an academic and business environment?
  • Why doing a PhD (or not)?
  • How does a typical workday look like?
  • Which skills are necessary to be a successful researcher?
  • What do they like most (and don't like so much) about their role in research?

Join the discussion and ask your questions about the opportunities and challenges, frustrations and success factors of working in research.

This career college is free of charge and available to all Bachelor and Master students and recent graduates of Leiden University. Note that although the event is open to students with all backgrounds,  the panel members all have a background in science!

The Career College will take place online

Registration starts six weeks before the event and ends on October 30th at 9:00.
