Participation

For doctoral candidates of all disciplines in the first six months of their doctoral studies of the Berlin University Alliance (Freie Universität, Humboldt-Universität, Technische Universität und Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin). 

Objectives

Freie Universität Berlin, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Technische Universität and Charité - Universitätsmedizin are pursuing the goal of improving the conditions of young researchers in the doctoral phase within the framework of the Berlin University Alliance.

It is a long way from the decision to do a doctorate to the moment when the doctoral certificate is handed over. Exchanging ideas and networking with peers is very valuable for starting a doctorate.

The focus of this kick-off event is to help early career researchers get started and to introduce them to contact persons at the four institutions in addition to helpful information on the content. Accompanied by trainers, a selection of important tools will be tested in small exercises and opportunities will be shown to deepen these across institutions. Short presentations, group coaching sessions, joint active lunch breaks and a networking evening with the international group will round off the event.
