Meet your Alumni / Rencontrez vos Alumni

Wednesday 20th March 2024 | 18h00-20h00 | Hall, Sciences III

(EN)/(FR) | Chairs : Karin Byland (Director of the Alumni Association)

We are proud to be organizing this event in close collaboration with the Centre Universitaire d'Informatique (CUI) and the Alumni Association of the University of Geneva. We warmly invite all students, including CUI students of all specialties, to register. If you have any questions, please contact Elie.Zagury(at)unige.ch.

This event is designed to foster meaningful connections between current students of the Faculty of Science and Alumni. The schedule of the event will unfold with the following structure:

  1. Discipline-Based Plenary Sessions: The event will commence with discipline-specific plenary sessions. Each discipline within the Faculty of Science will have its dedicated session, providing a focused and relevant experience for every participant. Esteemed alumni from each field will briefly share their professional journeys, offering insights into the diverse paths one can pursue in the realm of science.
  2. Interactive Q&A and Plenary Discussions: Following the alumni presentations, we will engage in an interactive Q&A session. This segment is designed to foster plenary discussions, allowing for an enriching exchange of ideas and perspectives between students and alumni.
  3. Semi-Structured Networking Aperitif: The event will culminate in a semi-structured networking aperitif. This portion of the program offers a unique opportunity for students to interact not only with alumni from their own discipline but also with those from other scientific fields. It's an ideal setting for informal yet impactful conversations, encouraging students to explore various career trajectories and build their professional networks.

This innovative format aims to provide an immersive and insightful experience for all attendees. Through personalized interactions and broad networking opportunities, we endeavor to inspire and guide our students in their future scientific careers, leveraging the wealth of experience and knowledge our alumni bring to the table.
