More information & FAQ

Two and a half days in a seminar hotel in Brandenburg, with 60 early career researchers who are in the starting phase of their doctorate projects, just like you. You can expect a lot of information, workshops on project management and self-organization, coaching sessions, and many networking opportunities. 

The Kick-Off event is organized by Berlin University Alliance, in the framework of the BUA Graduate Studies Support Program. Freie Universität Berlin, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Technische Universität and Charité are pursuing the goal of improving the conditions of young researchers in the doctoral phase within the framework of the Berlin University Alliance.

Ziele

It is a long way from the decision to do a doctorate to the moment when the doctoral certificate is handed over. Exchanging ideas and networking with peers is very valuable for starting a doctorate. The focus of this kick-off event is to help early career researchers get started and to introduce them to contact persons at the four institutions in addition to helpful information on the content. Accompanied by trainers, a selection of important tools will be tested in small exercises and opportunities will be shown to deepen these across institutions in further follow-up workshops. Short presentations, (group) coaching sessions, joint active breaks and a networking evening will round off the event.
