Webinar series "Building an international career" (November 2021) (Copy)


After a first series dedicated to mental health, the University of Bayreuth repeats the event this autumn, with 4 sessions spread over the month of November, and a new theme: internationality and its impact on career development.

The sessions are open to PhD students from Bayreuth, Bordeaux/France, Melbourne and Shanghai. A great opportunity to meet and exchange with peers from all over the world!

All four sessions will be held in English, on zoom.
