The main goals of the Symposium are to gain experience in presenting scientific results, exchange knowledge and ideas, popularize science and develop young scientists in the STEM field. From PhD students to PhD students.
The PhD Student Symposium is attended by doctoral students from all over Croatia and other countries such as Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia and the Czech Republic. Ever
y year the Symposium gathers more than 190 active and passive participants. The first Symposium was held in 2016 on the occasion of two significant jubilees, 140 years of organized scientific and teaching work in science and mathematics at the University of Zagreb, and 70 years at the Faculty of Science. The Symposium is a two-day event, where PhD students of the Faculty of Science and related studies present their scientific research to colleagues, mentors and teachers of doctoral studies, as well as scientists from related faculties and institutes, in the form of oral and poster presentations. During the Symposium, attendees will have the opportunity to participate in various workshops addressing the challenges faced by every young scientist and meet the Symposium sponsors and possible future employers. As if all this were not enticing enough, the Symposium traditionally offers a rich entertainment program with plenty of drinks and food. And, of course, the opportunity to meet with other symposium participants.
