Life Science Career Day

Launch your career, broaden your horizons

Each year, the Doctoral School organises the Life Science Career Day in collaboration with the BSNL association to help students and early career researchers make the transition from university to employment.

This large-scale event allows them to meet with employers and alumni, to better understand the transversal skills that are nowadays looked for and to discover the variety of roles of scientists in society.

The 11th edition will take place on May 16, 2023 at the SwissTech Convention Center.
