Are you a postdoc and do you ...
- want to get an inside view of the corporate world, and reflect on labour market trends, corporate social responsibility (CSR), company culture, …?
- want to learn from PhDs coming from different academic backgrounds why they decided to transfer to the corporate world, which competences they brought to the work floor, and which competences still needed further developing?
- want to gain an understanding of how KBC’s multidisciplinary teams tackle the sustainability challenges of today and tomorrow?
- want to expand your network with PhD holders (and others) working at KBC, and learn more about the wide range of fields and services they are active in?
Then attend the winter school on December 13 & 14, 2022, at the KBC offices in Brussels!
More detailed information about the programme and selection criteria are available online.
Registration deadline: November 15, 2022.
The mentoring programme at UHasselt is aimed at supporting (post)doctoral researchers in their further career development. It is a one-on-one interaction between an experienced mentor and a less experienced mentee.
There are two possible tracks in the mentoring programme:
- academic mentoring (only open to postdocs appointed at UHasselt for at least 50%, for at least one more year): mentoring towards an academic career, by a UHasselt professor (from a different faculty).
- civic mentoring (open to both postdocs and PhD students in the second half of their PhD trajectory and appointed for at least one more year): mentoring towards successfully entering the external labour market, by someone from a non-academic organization (small/large company, government, hospital, social sector, ...).
The duration of the mentoring trajectory is typically one year. You need to be available on January 12, 2023 (for the civic trajectory) or on January 19, 2023 (for the academic trajectory), 13:00-18:00, for an obligatory introductory workshop. Application deadline: November 27, 2022.
More details on the programme, the selection procedure and the timeline may be found here.
