Take part in the illuminating Career Fair Day concluding WEEK 2. Companies are invited to participate, interact, and showcase potential career pathways.

Director of RITMO and an open research advocate, Alexander Refsum Jensenius, discuss the evolving landscape of research assessment and what it means for the future of your career.

To establish a sustainable career in Norway, early career researchers should explore the exciting journey to transition from academia to industry.

We take a closer look at the CV and track record that is used when you submit a proposal for an academic grant to shed light on how to fill in these forms, and what you need to do to fill the gaps in your CV.

This session will focus on how you can present yourself and your competencies to the employers you will meet at the career fair. You will gain insight to how employers think, and why they attend at UiO. You will also get some tips on how to use LinkedIn as a tool and what you can do to get the most of the day.

Or maybe you are just interested in learning how to work with diversity to strengthen your project and work environment? Then you are warmly welcomed to our workshop, which addresses two critical aspects of the academic life: Imposter Syndrome and biases.

This workshop will give you tools for identifying scientific publication channels, navigate publishing agreements and self-archiving policies. You will do practical exercises, explore examples, and have insightful discussions with your peers.

Creating an inclusive research environment requires skill in navigating diversity while also avoiding conflict. This workshop is designed to provide you with the tools and insights necessary to handle conflict skillfully or avoid it altogether.

Hylleraas School 2024 will be held at Hotel Hadeland on Jan 9-12
