What are the pressing issues doctoral researchers face today? Which skills will be essential tomorrow? 

 

In this interactive networking event, doctoral researchers connect, exchange ideas on current challenges and emerging opportunities, and explore future-relevant topics. Together with peers as well as members of the Advisory Board of doctoral researchers and conventions, participants explore how to stay or get future-ready, moderated by Advisory Board members and KHYS. The event offers a space for open dialogue, creative exchange, and collaborative idea development.

 

Postdoc Insights: In the second part of the event, two experienced postdocs will reflect on the skills and competencies they consider essential for the future of science. What should doctoral researchers focus on today to be well-prepared for tomorrow’s challenges? Based on their own experiences, the postdocs will offer practical advice on how to prepare for a dynamic research landscape.

 

Afterwards, all participants are invited to an informal get-together with coffee and cake to end the event in a pleasant atmosphere. Bonus: Meet Career counseler Jana Schmitt there and get career planning advice.

 

This event is part of the KHYS Future Days 2025. This event is open to doctoral and postdoctoral researchers at KIT who are KHYS members.
