Cognitive Science Mentoring Event

2024/01/26

Many Cognitive Science students are usually wondering about their career options after graduation.

To address questions and share some insights about first steps into the working world and possible career paths, the Cognitive Science Mentoring Team organized an event on the 26th of January, called “CogSci Studium fertig. Und jetzt?”

Former students of TU Darmstadt from Cognitive Science (and its predecessor program PsychIT) were invited to talk about their careers after university and to give interested students a personal impression of possible career prospects. PhD students, postdocs and professors from various Cognitive Science working groups were also present.

With around 120 attendees the event was a success with many discussions between students and guests until late in the evening.
