The Giessen Graduate Center for Natural Sciences and Psychology (GGN) is a central, interdisciplinary institution at Justus Liebig University Giessen. The GGN was founded in 2022 to provide researchers at early career stages in the natural sciences and psychology with the best possible support through accompanying qualification programs and to support them in their further career planning. We form an interdisciplinary network for exchange and cooperation between the sciences.

As the GGN in cooperation with the Center for Materials Research (ZfM), we are also striving for better networking with business and industry at the training and project level. Together with you as an industrial partner, we want to create the necessary structured interfaces for networking, e.g. as part of a digital platform "Marketplace" or at "Industry Days". The goals are

  1. To inform students about internships and final theses in industry and thus provide industry experience and insight into career opportunities,
  2. to initiate projects between experts from industry and the natural sciences and psychology at the university with the involvement of doctoral students,
  3. to facilitate access for industry partners to existing research infrastructure within the framework of joint projects.

The GGN and ZfM invite you to the information event "GGN meets Industry " in the conference room "Alte Gießerei" in the Hotel & Restaurant heyligenstaedt in Giessen. The program for this day includes the presentation of the GGN and existing structures of cooperation with business and industry at graduate and postgraduate level, experience reports from company partners and our graduates on the added value of such cooperation, as well as a discussion with you to get to know your requirements and needs better and to incorporate them into the new interface structure. Please note that the event will be hold in German language. 

During a joint coffee break and at the end of the event with a snack and aperitif, there will be room for questions and the opportunity to exchange ideas. As a representative of your company, this event is free of charge for you. To register for the event, please send a short e-mail to mail@ggn.uni-giessen.de with the subject "GGN meets Industry". We look forward to your visit.
