Researcher's Roundtable
Social events for researchers in Osnabrück
Let's explore Osnabrück together
Are you a PhD student, Post-Doc or academic staff member in Osnabrück and looking for other reseachers to exchange ideas and experiences with?
Osnabrück University and Osnabrück University of Applied Sciences invite you to join our social events! We meet in changing locations in Osnabrück and offer a variety of leisure activites. Here you can chat with other doctoral candidates in a relaxed atmosphere and exchange ideas about your research and common interests. In addition to international researchers, there are usually also some German PhD student joining our activities.
We look forward to meeting you!
Upcoming events
We want to end the winter with a cozy fire and roast e.g. stick bread, marshmallows or apples over the fire. You are welcome to bring something (warm) to drink. The meeting point is at 7 pm in the outdoor area of “Schmied im Hone”: Oldenburger Landstr. 62. When you enter the courtyard, turn right and walk up the stairs (next to the street). You will then find us behind the building. Please also see the aerial photograph below.
Prior registration is not required. We look forward to seeing you!
We meet at 7 PM at the pub "Bottled” in Osnabrück. Address: Osterberger Reihe 10, 49074 Osnabrück.
You don't need to sign up in advance - just drop by! You will recognize us by the "Researcher's Roundtable" sign on the table.
Invitation to the Researcher's Reception
Prof. Dr. Andrea Lenschow, Vice President for International Affairs, Diversity, and Academic Qualifications at the University of Osnabrück, cordially invites our researchers to an official reception.
With this new event format, the university management would like to express its special appreciation to researchers in Osnabrück for their contribution to research. In addition to interesting short presentations, the event offers plenty of opportunity for networking and exchange. Over drinks and snacks, you will have the opportunity to engage in conversation and make new contacts in a pleasant atmosphere.
We would be delighted if you could attend!
