Doctoral Convention (DC) General Assembly

The Heidelberg University Doctoral Convention cordially invites all doctoral students to this year's general assembly. The event will take place on Wednesday, 13th of November, at 7:00 pm in the Kirchhoff-Institute for Physics, SR3.403/3.404. The language of the event will be English.

During the assembly the Convention will report about last year's activities and, more importantly, elect the new executive commitee. There will be the opportunity to raise issues that are important to the university’s doctoral researchers and that should be taken into account by the committee's work within the next year. After the assembly there will be a get-together with snacks and drinks.
