Hi everyone!
This message brings you information about DocSoBe’s events in October.
2 October, 10 am–12 pm | Writing workshop at Educarium and on Zoom. Are you looking for some structure and motivation for your writing? Come join DocSoBe’s Friday writing workshops! During the workshop, you can work on a piece of text or another task that is currently relevant to you, together with other doctoral researchers in a supportive and encouraging peer environment – so feel free to spread the word among your fellow doctoral researchers as well. The workshop facilitator takes care of the rhythm of the session and breaks, helping you stay focused and keep your work moving forward. Coffee and some light snacks will be provided. ☕️
The writing workshop is held once a month on Fridays from 10 am to 12 pm, in a hybrid format. The following sessions are on 2 October, 6 November, and 4 December. The workshop will take place in Montessori room KH272 in the Educarium Library. No registration is required. On October 2, remote participants can join via this Zoom link: https://utu.zoom.us/j/64099290225 (Meeting ID: 640 9929 0225)
8 October, 5–7 pm | After Work at Proffan kellari. An informal get-together for all doctoral researchers in the social and behavioural sciences at the University of Turku. Our After Work gatherings take place on Thursdays during odd-numbered weeks from 5 to 7 pm, unless otherwise announced. Come along, unwind, and enjoy some company after the workday!
15 October, 11 am | Lunch meeting. Join us for our monthly lunch gathering! We’ve made a small change to the format we introduced in the spring. We’ll now meet in the lobby on the second floor of Publicum and head to the lunch restaurant together. Lunch is at your own expense. No registration is required.
22 October, 5–11.30 pm | 🎃 Halloween Party 🎃. DocSoBe is teaming up with BRIDGE, Docturne, and JUNecto to host a laid-back Halloween party! Come spend an autumn evening with fellow doctoral researchers. Snacks and non-alcoholic beverages will be provided—just bring yourself, and feel free to dress up for the occasion! 👻 If you wish, you can also bring your own drinks. The party will be held at the TYY Sauna (Rehtorinpellonkatu 4), so you can also bring a swimsuit and towel if you’d like to use the sauna.
The event is free and no registration is required! Please note that this event replaces this week’s Afterwork gathering at Proffan Kellari.
