Virtual Student Open Day
Each year, the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) opens its doors to give prospective PhD and internship candidates an insight into what it is like to study and do research at the institute.
What to expect
The Virtual Open Day is a great opportunity to explore our programs and campus virtually, wherever you are. The program includes a range of live sessions from the Graduate School Office, academics, and students. You can find out about the PhD program, the ISTA research experience, the support services, the ISTA campus, and much more by attending one of the talks.
All the sessions will be interactive, with opportunities to ask your questions to Graduate School Office staff, academics and students.
The tentative schedule is as follows:
Introduction to ISTA and the Graduate School, 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm, Central European Time (CET) – Vienna
Hosted by Maria Trofimova, Head of the Graduate School Office, with welcome by Eva Benkova, Dean of the Graduate School and Gasper Tkacik, Deputy to the Dean.
