Workshops and seminars

In August, SWACCS (Swedish Academic Consortium on Chemical Safety) will arrange a 2 day-workshop "Communicating and visualising science" open to PhD students and junior scientists.

In this workshop the participants will learn about principles for poster design, layout and composition and apply these in practise, discuss aspects of communicating science and discuss ethics in scientific communication and related work.

More information about the workshop and how to register will come soon.

Thinking about what  the next step after your PhD is and how to get there? 

In this annual seminar series, we invite former PhD students to share their career journeys beyond the dissertation. Their stories highlight the many different paths available, both within academia and outside of it.

You’ll hear how they got to where they are today, sometimes through carefully planned decisions, and sometimes through unexpected opportunities along the way. In addition, they’ll share honest reflections, lessons learned, and practical advice to help you navigate your own next steps.

If you know someone that you would like us to invite you are always welcome to send us a suggestion.

Meet a Professor

We are excited to announce an opportunity to organize a subject-specific event titled “Meet a Professor”. The aim is to provide PhD students and postdocs with an informal academic setting that fosters networking, mentorship, and connections with faculty beyond their immediate supervisors or departments.

In a small-group format, participants will have the chance to engage in in-depth discussions with an expert in a specific field, offering a unique platform for exploring research topics more deeply. The event will take the form of a conversational roundtable discussion.

Meet a Professor sessions can be organized either digitally or in person at SLU. If you have a particular subject area or professor you would like to engage with to discuss your research, please get in touch with us.
