Networking

The Postdoc Network Brandenburg connects postdocs as well as scientists doing artistic research across institutional and disciplinary boundaries and supports their career development.

Our approach to networking includes the establishment and growth of each individual postdoc’s career network. The network also offers opportunities for exchange and the initiation of collaborations beyond our regular events. We support postdocs in forming their own peer groups across institutions, regions, and departments.

The networking activities and services are designed in part to maintain and strengthen connections with the academic institutions in Brandenburg beyond the next career step and to stay connected with the Postdoc Network as an alumnus/alumna.

A network for alumni

Sustainable networking

We are building an alumni network that will help former members to stay in touch with their peers as well as Brandenburg’s academic landscape. Alumni are also encouraged to share their experiences with subsequent PNB Fellows. We would be delighted if you, as a Fellow of the network, remain involved in the network even after having completed your projct, for example, as a speaker during lecture events or as a future mentor.

Even if you leave Brandenburg – stay connected! Help us to build a cross-regional and cross-disciplinary network in which both professional and other topics have a place.

New Perspectives through Peer Group Coaching

Collegial advising

Postdoc peer groups within the Postdoc Network Brandenburg are groups of postdoctoral scientists from the scientific institutions of Brandenburg in a comparable career phase. They come together on their own initiative to support, motivate and inspire each other. If desired, peer groups can take advantage of coaching in order to set up the group process in the best possible way.
