Welcome to the MPIB Beyond Academic Careers Day!

We have a day full of panels, workshops and networking opportunities planned for you.

If you would like to participate in the two workshops, please fill in the registration form below. Unfortunately, it is not possible to apply only for one of them. RA / FTA are welcome to apply, too.

Please note that we expect there to be more applicants than we have places in the workshops. We kindly ask for your patience until we can confirm participation - we will do our best to inform you as soon as possible.

If you would like to attend the panels or join for the networking during breaks, but are not interested in the workshops, no registration is needed.
