The MPP/MPQ Career Day is meant to bring together young researchers, interested in transitioning from academia to e.g. industry, finance or consulting, and companies looking for doctoral researchers well-versed in working methodically and solving multi-layered problems.
The event will take place on Wednesday, 30th April 2025 at the Max Planck Institute for Physics, Garching b. München (MPP) organized by the MPP/MPQ PhD representatives. We will hear about career paths in academia from Nils-Holger Haag. The companies set up stands in the foyer presenting themselves with e.g. posters, brochures or recruiting contacts. During the entire day, participants are encouraged to visit their stands and get in contact with the companies. For a first impression, the speakers give a concise 3-minute presentation about their company. Later, the speakers have another 20 minutes to present their current job, their personal experiences as well as possible career paths in their company. There will also be the opportunity to interact with the speakers during lunch and dinner. Most of the speakers have a scientific background similar to or even in physics. In total, 10 companies covering a wide field of applications are participating:
We are looking forward to welcoming you at the MPP/MPQ Career Day 2025!
