Welcome to the community of PhD students and Postdoctoral researchers at the Department of Political Science UZH!
The Pre-Publication Seminar at the Department of Political Science offers PhDs and Postdocs the opportunity to present their research projects at an early stage in a more informal setting among peers and to receive feedback.
Peer mentoring is a voluntary and informal program to connect incoming PhDs and Postdocs with a mentor from a different chair. The intention is for mentors to provide practical advice and support (academic, social, bureaucratic) to help mentees integrate and thrive in the department.
Every year, members of the Mittelbau organize a 3-day workshop in Castasegna, a small and picturesque village. The workshop is aimed at PhDs and Postdocs, who can present their work and are provided with a space for exchange.
As of 2024, Philipp Kerler (Postdoc) and Fabienne Eisenring (PhD) represent their peers vis-à-vis the department leadership, administration and professors. Please feel free to reach out to them if you have any questions or concerns.
