Get to Know Your University – A Special Welcome for Newcomer Postdocs

Welcome to the University of Vienna – and welcome to your new chapter as a postdoctoral researcher at our institution!
To help you settle in and connect with peers who are also just getting started, we invite you to an exclusive small-group event designed especially for newcomer postdocs.

Invitations will be sent directly to postdocs who have started their employment at the University of Vienna within the last 6 months. If you would like to participate but have been with us for longer, please send us an email. If we still have places available, we would be delighted to have you join us.

 Join us on June 16, 2025, for the first edition of our “Get to Know Your University” event series, which takes you to some of the university’s most fascinating and lesser-known places.

This time, we’ll explore the Medicinal Plant Garden of the Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences – a true hidden gem in the heart of the University.

What to expect:

  • 12:00 – Meet & Greet
  • 12:15 – Guided tour through the Medicinal Plant Garden
    Learn about current research projects and how this green space is used in scientific work.
  • 13:00 – Networking lunch with sandwiches & drinks
    Get to know fellow newcomers and engage in open conversations – we’ll also be joined by a guest expert for informal exchange.

Spots are limited to 15–20 participants – making this a unique opportunity to connect, explore, and feel part of the university community right from the start.
Don’t miss your chance to discover this gem and make new connections!

Registration is mandatory for participation in the event.
We’re looking forward to meeting you there!
