Choices regarding a career path are numerous and sometimes complex. There are many options both in- and outside academia, and it might be challenging to discern which options suits you best. Therefore this course focuses on the exploration of your personal study and career options.
In six interactive workshops, tools are offered to self-reflect on who you are and what you want out of your study and career. You will learn about your capacities and the challenges that you will face when taking the first step towards your future career. You will identify and explore career opportunities, take a career test, recognize the value of your network and learn how to reach out to people. The insights from the course will help you make well-founded choices on your career path.
Study materials will be provided during the course.
