| Women In Economics Mentoring Retreat, Gothenburg, Sweden - Sunday August 25 to Monday August 26, 2013 |
 |
| Call For Applications |
This year the EEA WinE’s Committee will be running its first ever “Mentoring Retreat” during the annual EEA-ESEM Congress.
The retreat is open to early career female economists with positions (post-doctoral fellows, lecturers, researchers) at academic and research institutions and who obtained their PhDs in 2008-2013 (we will also consider applicants who expect to obtain their PhD at a later date but who have already secured a position for the next academic year at a different institution from their PhD granting one).
The attendees will participate in a series of innovative discussions organized as panels and as smaller groups run by senior mentors. The discussions will cover topics such as publishing, writing successful grant applications, networking and career planning, with attention to the unique challenges that women may face at different stages of their careers. The small group sessions will focus on participants’ research papers and provide an opportunity for detailed comment and feed-back from senior mentors in their field.
There will also be many opportunities for the attendees to socialise with each other and their mentors during this event. |
