The Faculty of Medicine wants to provide you with perspectives and practical advice on how to prepare for your future career after obtaining your doctorate. Each fall, the Phd-coordinators at the Faculty of Medicine arrange a career day that adresses options and possibilities for young doctorate holders in the life sciences. This year, we will continue with the popular «My way» presentations of former PhD-candidates. We will also arrange several parallel hands-on workshops on career-building skills.
