KSETA PhD Campus North excursion

Europe/Berlin
Description

Have you ever wondered what your KSETA colleagues do at their institutes at Campus North? This excursion is your chance to find out!

Important Note: Campus North has certain acces restrictions! If you work at Campus North you obviously already have access to it. If you work at Campus South and have a KIT employee ID card (green) you can also just enter without any further formalities. If you work at Campus South and are funded by a scholarship, thus enrolled as a student with only a blue ID card, we have to register you at the reception office at the main gate. If this is the case please tell us in the "other remarks" section of the registration form, we will then contact you for further details.
