We are pleased to invite you to the next CUI Alumni talk, which will be held on Wednesday, December 4th, 2024, at 16:00.

This event presents an outstanding opportunity to explore the diverse career paths available to those who have completed their PhD or postdoctoral studies.

Event details:

Speaker: Dr. Florian Lenz
Company: Messring GmbH

Former research group: Theory Group of Fundamental Processes in Quantum Physics, Uni Hamburg. Prof. Dr. Peter Schmelcher

Abstract:

Exemplary career options for physicists will be shown along the career path—from science, through consulting and start-ups, to the "German Mittelstand". What kind of know-how and skills do each of these positions require, and what typical tasks and challenges come with these assignments?

 

Following Dr. Lenz's talk, a round-table discussion will allow you to engage directly with him and ask questions about pursuing various career paths. If the weather permits, a small social gathering after the event will be hosted to foster networking and further discussions.

To ensure the smooth organization of the event, please register here.
