Workshop

Are you curious what a PhD can offer you, not only within academia but also beyond? Did you know that 70% of PhD graduates eventually continue their careers outside the university sector?

A PhD does not only prepare you for an academic career – it trains you to become a broadly skilled researcher who can contribute to solving today’s complex challenges. Along the way, you develop valuable transferable skills such as project management, critical thinking, teamwork, and communicating with diverse audiences. These skills are highly valued by employers in many different fields. But how can you, as a research master’s student, already explore whether a PhD is the right next step for you, what opportunities may follow, and how you can prepare yourself?

In this workshop, we will show you how AcademicTransfer’s tools can help you gain insight into your future career options. You will get a realistic view of where a PhD can take you – both inside and outside academia. 

Please note that attendance of this session is on a first-come, first-served basis despite registrations. We advise you to be on time in order to secure your spot.
