Workshop: Next Steps towards Postdoc

Provided by: HSG
(EQF level: 8)

Description

What comes after the PhD? How can you continue a career in academia? One option is grants. Early-career researchers can apply to various funding organizations for career instruments. These instruments are designed to help young researchers achieve academic independence and further sharpen their own research profile.

This information event presents some of the grants available for continuing an academic career in Switzerland or abroad. We will provide guidance and practical tips for applying for such funding instruments. The event also offers the opportunity to ask questions that are relevant to you regarding the transition from PhD to postdoc through grants.
