On 16 March 2023 the seminar “Early Career Meets Visiting Professor Tim Schork” took place.
Tim Schork is visiting IntCDC from Queensland University of Technology (QUT), Australia. He is an expert in the field of computational design, robotic manufacturing processes and low-embodied carbon materials. His research fundamentally rethinks and radically transforms current design and building practices to be more resourceful, regenerative and sustainable.
With the “Early Career Meets Visiting Professor” format, we offer all early career researchers in the cluster the unique opportunity to exchange ideas with the top researchers in their field and to discuss their own projects and career paths, as well as job and funding opportunities in the professor's respective country of origin, in an informal setting.
The format is deliberately designed to allow for an intensive and individualised advice and to address the questions of each of the participating early career researchers.
Professor Tim Schork offered this opportunity to two of our PhD students who are at different stages of their doctoral theses. They were able to benefit from the experience and knowledge of Tim Schork, who not only focused on career opportunities and strategies, but also gave very practical advice on career planning and concrete job applications. There was also intensive advice at the level of their scientific work, with classification of experimental and work planning and practical references to other research work and literature.
We would like to thank Professor Tim Schork for taking the time to share his perspective and suggestions with the two participants in this seminar, and for encouraging them in their respective career paths.
