EVENT REVIEW
RESEARCH EXHIBITION
IN ESSENCE. PERSONALITIES OF RESEARCH
The Graduate School wants to provide a framework for research realization and furthermore aims to promote the works and the researchers themselves. To showcase their work, we developed the concept of a research exhibition where the individually designed research portfolios are featured next to the portraits. The exhibition was successfully on display three times and is now availiable online.
FEATURE
NOW _RESEARCH TALKS
THE GRADUATE SCHOOL'S ONLINE MAGAZINE
With the new online magazine we want to create a source of inspiration on how careers can be shaped and research projects can be brought to life. Leveraging vocational biographies of respected researchers and personalities as well as those of recent graduates, the articles and interviews focus on the researcher behind the project. Read up on exiting background stories and leaf through interviews, essays, graduation talks and insights into research projects.
