Employer skills workshop
Date: Wednesday 22 November 2017
Time: 5-6.30pm
Venue: Bancroft 320; Queen Mary University of London, Mile End campus
This session, which is specifically for PhDs and postdocs, will train you to articulate your scientific knowledge to a range of different clients.
The event, run by patent attorney firm Kilburn & Strode, will also give you an introduction to careers in patents and trademarks. This is a sector which recruits heavily from the STEM researcher population and pays well.
You’ll learn to:
- succinctly and confidently summarise your research
- get useful practice talking to professionals
- describe complex scientific concepts for business audiences
- differentiate between patents and trademarks and what a career as a patent attorney looks like
