Two-day interactive on-site workshop (March 5+6, 2026)
Only few PhD graduates stay at the university in the medium term and the most optimistic estimates give only 10 % of PhDs a realistic chance of attaining a professorship. Therefore, it is very wise for scientists to start exploring alternative career paths early on. Several obstacles stand in the way: the intense focus on the dissertation and the resulting lack of time, doubts and fears about career prospects both inside and outside academia, and the shortage of concrete strategies and role models.
This workshop offer is intended to give doctoral candidates and postdocs the opportunity to deal specifically with the topic of possible career prospects outside of their academic career – be it to have a good "plan B", be it to concretize perspectives and take their first steps.
Note: This workshop is primarily aimed at the German‑speaking job market. Please consider our other workshop offer in April for the international job market.
The workshop is offered exclusively for KCDS members and members of the CRC Wave Phenomena. If there are free places left over, non-members may also sign up. Registration for non-members will open on February 1, 2026.

We are happy to announce the Junior Researcher Workshop on stochastic partial differential equations in applied mathematics. The workshop is a joint initiative by doctoral students from Karlsruhe's KCDS and Heidelberg's HGS MathComp and aims to provide young researchers with a smooth introduction to this challenging yet highly relevant topic.
Registration is now open and poster contributions are very welcome!
Abstract
Stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) are a notoriously challenging topic in combining advanced theory of both partial differential equations and stochastic processes. However, it is due to this sophisticated combination of both concepts that they emerge as a powerful and versatile tool for modelling highly diverse phenomena in the sciences. While incredibly useful to describe these systems, utilising them jointly with data and measurements to accurately determine characteristics or provide reliable predictions is still a lot of work in progress in (applied) mathematics.
A central challenge, especially for junior researchers with an interest in the field, is that there is a major gap to overcome from available lecture materials, graduate courses and books to current problems and challenges in applied mathematics for SPDEs. We aim to support doctoral students in closing this gap, growing a network of junior researchers and fostering interdisciplinary collaboration.
