"From the ice they are freed, the stream and brook,
By the Spring’s enlivening, lovely look",

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe already knew.

The TUD campus is also awakening from its winter sleep and welcome the new season with the first signs of spring.
And so it is time to start the summer semester 2023 full of verve and energy.

Postdoc Day – Careers in Science

On 22.03.23, the "Postdoc Day - Careers in Science" took place for the first time at the Graduate Academy - organised by the Postdoc Center HZDR-TUD. The almost 60 participants took advantage of the opportunity to network and exchange ideas with other postdocs. In particular, the presentation of the central results of the TUD/HZDR Postdoc Survey 2022 met with great interest. Reports on the experiences of successful postdocs as well as short workshops on topics such as science management, funding opportunities or strategic planning of the scientific career path rounded off the programme.
