You would like to change your career and you do not know how?

Led by RMIT Europe’s REDI Program, the Bridging Science and Business Working Group (BSB WG) is pleased to co-organise the PhD Career Day Hybrid Event, with the MCAA Spain–Portugal Chapter, and ACCIÓ.

This free one-day event is designed for recent PhD graduates and current PhD candidates who are looking to explore career opportunities, gain insights into professional paths inside and outside academia, and connect with a vibrant international community. Attendees will grasp the ideas and success stories from former PhDs who discovered that there is another life outside the academia. You will hear career stories from PhD alumni, Start-ups, entrepreneurs, project managers and discover support programs, and build networks that can help shape their next steps.

In case of high demand, priority will be given to MSCA fellows in their third year, who are especially encouraged to attend.
