Career Conversations

Are you a Postdoc, PhD or other researcher wondering how to navigate and find career opportunities outside of academia?

We co-host a series of lunchtime Zoom webinars tailored for you!! Come hear from a variety of professionals discussing their career paths post PhD.

Junior Faculty jointly host these events and represent early and mid-career researchers at Uppsala University that hold a PhD.

Uppsala Circle

Do you enjoy reading books and discussing their content? Then this new initiative might be something for you. 📚 📚 📚

Uppsala Circle is more than a book club; it's a forum for intellectual exploration and social interaction. It is tailored to people who are keen to deepen their understanding of the world around us: our direction, societal trends, the roots of human behavior, the principles governing nature, and our collective future.

We explore a wide range of influential works spanning the sciences and humanities. These books introduce concepts and ideas frequently encountered in news, television, or online. We trace them back to their origins and authors. Additionally, we delve into contemporary literature found in city bookshops, at the airports, or on recommended lists of major newspapers. Reading transforms us into more informed and well-rounded individuals.

BBQs with SLUPA

Together with our friends at SLU's postdoc association, we cohost BBQs for all postdocs in Uppsala.

We've mostly met at SLU Ultuna's wonderful BBQ area by the riverside but also meet at the Ångstrom campus.

It's a great way to meet a variety of researchers and get to know other people around Uppsala.
