ABOUT THE EVENT

The project is run jointly by ABG, the French-German University and the French-Italian University, with the support of the European Commission.

Many organisations from academic research and industrial R&D in Europe come together on the 11th and 12th of December at Fondation Biermans Lapotre (CIUP) to give you an overview of their mobility programmes and career opportunities.

Get to know them, discuss with them about your mobility project thanks to panel discussions, talks, workshops, exhibition booths and “networking breaks”. And benefit from the individual advisory sessions with European career advisors to help you define your project!

This event will allow you:

• to know the research landscape in Europe, enabling you to explore the European job market for researchers
• to identify the funding schemes for a research stay abroad
• to understand the recruitment process in Europe and to know the expectations from recruiters in the industry
• to understand the impact of an European experience on your career
• to be informed and to develop your network to implement your mobility project
• to be aware of initiatives making the mobility in Europe easier (recognition of foreign degrees, pension, dual career, return mobility)

All the programme is held in English.

Target groups:

• Master’s students
• doctoral candidates and doctorate holders from all fields
• representatives of universities and research institutes (International office, career center, doctoral programmes…)
