Information
Dear colleagues and guests,
At Chemnitz University of Technology, supporting early-career scientists is both a priority and a responsibility. Our goal is to create the best possible conditions for the qualification phase and beyond. The Centre for Junior Scientists (ZfwN) serves as a central hub for advice, training, and support along the way.
The „Tag des wissenschaftlichen Nachwuchses“ brings together prospective doctoral candidates, doctoral researchers, postdocs, supervisors, and anyone interested in research career. It provides space for inspiration, exchange, and networking around topics such as doctoral studies, career planning, and researcher development.
We are delighted to invite you to join us again this year on 11 November 2025! The event will focus on „Academic Qualification in the Age of AI“ – with a wide range of exciting sessions offering fresh perspectives and new ideas.
The event will be held in both German and English. Each session will be conducted in the language of its respective presentation title.
Register now and be part of the „Tag des wissenschaftlichen Nachwuchses“ - we look forward to seeing you!
Your team at the Centre for Junior Scientists
