Beyond the Exit Question: Navigating Your Postdoc Career Options

Dr. Julia Michael, Career Engagement Managerin, UZH

 

Thinking about 鈥渟taying in鈥� or 鈥渓eaving鈥� academia? This session reframes the postdoc phase as a time for active, informed exploration, without forcing an early decision. It introduces a practical approach to engage with your career and gain initial orientation across career paths within and beyond academia.

The focus is on small, actionable steps. Through reflection and peer coaching, participants identify their key resources and use practical tools to support their decision-making. They explore concrete strategies for engaging with the career landscape, while gaining insight into available support structures.
