DRINGENDE OPROEP AAN ALUMNI

Wij als Biologica organiseren 7 juni een alumni symposium. Hier vragen wij afgestudeerden om te spreken over hun huidige baan en carrière pad.

Kort over de dag zelf, het symposium zal in Wageningen gehouden worden. Het zal bestaan uit een avond waar alumni het podium krijgen om te vertellen over hun carrièrepad, werkervaring en huidige baan. Onze leden kunnen zo een idee krijgen van hoe het leven na studeren verder gaat. U bent uiteraard vrij om de nadruk te leggen op wat u zelf wilt. Hierna zullen de studenten ruimte krijgen om vragen te stellen en zal er een kleine afsluitende borrel zijn.

Bent u misschien geïnteresseerd om te spreken? De avond zal waarschijnlijk van 19:30 tot 22:00 duren. Mail voor meer informatie naar [email protected]!

BERICHT AAN DE ALUMNI afgestudeerd in 2018, 2019 of 2020

Het Nederlands Instituut voor Biologie (NIBI) doet, samen met de opleidingen Biologie, Biomedische Wetenschappen, Psychobiologie en LST in Nederland, onderzoek naar alumni afgestudeerd in 2018, 2019 en 2020. Geldt dit voor jou? Dan wil ik nu graag via een mini-enquête van je weten welke baan je intussen hebt gescoord. Je antwoorden zijn belangrijk voor de opleidingen, omdat ze als opleiding onderwijs willen ontwikkelen dat aansluit op de vraag in de markt.



Ik hoop natuurlijk dat jij snel na je afstuderen een mooie baan in de biologie of in de biomedische wetenschappen hebt gevonden, maar ook als je op een andere plek terecht gekomen bent of als je nog geen baan gevonden hebt, wil ik dat graag weten. Het NIBI heeft de vragenlijst zo compact mogelijk gemaakt en vraagt daardoor maar vijf tot tien minuten van je tijd.



Als dank voor je deelname krijg je desgewenst de resultaten van het hele onderzoek in je mailbox. Geef in de enquête aan of je gebruik wilt maken van deze service. Zo ja, dan mailt het NIBI je de resultaten.



Ga nu direct naar www.nibi.nl/pagina/mini-enquete-masters en vul de mini-enquête in!
De enquête loopt tot en met 31 december van dit jaar.

Mini-enquête voor biologen, biomedisch wetenschappers en andere biowetenschappers, afgestudeerd tussen januari 2018 en januari 2021 aan een biowetenschappelijke opleiding in Nederland.

Addy de Jongh will give a lecture on the reintroduction and maintenance of the otter in the Netherlands
Wim van der Putten from NIOO-KNAV will talk about current climate warming and how this causes species to range shift.
