Ten German universities, research institutions and funding organisations will come together as a “German Pavilion” to introduce themselves and their activities at the Naturejobs Career Expo on 23 September 2010 in London.
Naturejobs Career Expo is a high-end career fair that aims to introduce scientists at PhD level to potential new employers in their related research field. More than 1,000 scientists from the physics, chemistry, life sciences and medical sciences sectors will have the opportunity to meet with German representatives and discuss future employment opportunities at this year’s Naturejobs Career Expo (formerly The Source Event).
The German pavilion is part of the “Research in Germany – Land of Ideas” campaign run by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) and will present the following institutions:
- Academics.com
- Baden Württemberg International (BWI)
- Bonn-Cologne Graduate School of Physics and Astronomy (BCGS)
- German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD)
- Graduate School for Biological Sciences (GSfBS)
- Helmholtz Association of German Research Centres (HGF)
- International Max Planck Research School for Molecular and Cellular Biology (IMPRS-MCB)
- International Max Planck Research School on Earth System Modelling (IMPRS-ESM)
- Max Planck Society for the Advancement of Science (MPG
- School of Integrated Climate System Sciences (SICSS)
- University of Heidelberg
The German representatives will also hold an information session, titled “Research in Germany – Career Opportunities in the Land of Ideas”. The workshops will be offered free to anyone interested in researching in Germany and will provide further information on the exhibiting German institutions and potential job opportunities.
We invite all interested students, researchers and journalists to visit the German pavilion (9.00 am to 5.00 pm) and attend the free information session (2.00 to 4.30 pm).
