Brown Bag Break – Wed, 19 June 2019, 5 p.m.
It’s time for another Brown Bag Break at FAU! A great opportunity for networking beyond your current research project, to get in touch with young researchers from other disciplines and to share ideas.
This time it is once more up to the Faculty of Sciences to host the event. The key part will be a presentation by Dr. Luca Caracciolo (Chair for Geology) about his career in Science and Industry: „From Academia to Industry and back”.
When: Wednesday, 19 June 2019, 5 p.m. (17 Uhr)
Where: H2, Egerlandstraße 3, 91058 Erlangen
Register for this event by writing an email to Patrik Stoer (patrik.stoer@fau.de). You are also welcome to join without having registered in advance, but registering helps the organizers to provide brown bags with tasty snacks as well as non-alcoholic drinks and beer for every participant.

News 11/18
Last week we sat together and discussed some topics that are currently being debated at our university. Among these were:
- Changes in the FAU’s General Doctoral Regulations (Rahmenpromotionsordnung)
- Possible (dis-)advantages of W1 Junior Professor positions
- The amendment of the Universities bylaws (Novellierung der Grundordnung)
We also talked about upcoming and planned social events. There will be a Get Together (Kneipenabend) on the night of the Kick-Off Event for the Academic Year 2018/19 (Auftaktveranstaltung für Promovierende) directly after the event. We will soon inform you about the time and place.
We will also consider other events in the near future like a group hike, brewery visit or guided city tour. If you have any thoughts and suggestions on this (or any other topic) we are happy to hear from you!
