Equal Opportunity
An important objective of NCCR QSIT is to create an atmosphere where female researchers feel welcomed and part of every process, such as decision-making, research, presentation of results etc. Every QSIT researcher should feel appreciated for her or his contribution.
Our strategy focuses on two major goals:
1. Try to attract more young women to start a career in physics, chemistry, electrical engineering or quantum information theory.
- INSPIRE Potentials QSIT Master Internship Award
- MINT teaching unit: "Vom Doppelspalt zum Quantencomputer"
- external page ETH4Kids
2. Try to keep female scientists in the pipeline of a scientific career
- INSPIRE Postdocs QSIT INSPIRE Postdoc Award
- Lunch meetings to discuss careers
- Opportunity to meet with visiting female speakers
- Networking: QSIT Women Networking! and QSIT ladies regular table
- Resources for parents regarding child care and support during conferences, please contact directly the QSIT office.
