April 24, 2024 - EALE Tour
In 2021 EALE launched the EALE Tour for job market candidates. For the EALE Tour, three promising young scholars are selected for a tour along three receiving institutions (universities/research centers).
The EALE Tour profits the Tour candidates and the receiving institutions:
• EALE Tour candidates can promote their research, gain feedback and extend their network.
• PhD’s and senior staff at receiving institutions profit from the interaction with promising young scholars.
“I am happy to hear you received good feedbacks. On our side, it was definitely a success and we very much enjoyed this experience! Thanks again for launching this initiative, we hope you're going to keep it in place for the next years.”
