The main role of the Career and Lecture Committee is to organise events related with career and lecture opportunities, including themed lectures, career-focused events, and networking opportunities! Through these events, you will have the chance to dive deeper into a wide range of topics and explore what kind of career options there are after your studies.

If the Career and Lecture Committee were a dish, they would be a big stack of homemade pancakes (best made by Jana, the amazing Chair of HCSA). Whether you are in the mood for sweet jam and Nutella or savoury cheese and ham, there is always a pancake that just hits the spot. That is what the committee will also try to do: offer a mix of different events, so there is something for everyone. And just like pancakes are best shared, their events are all about bringing people together, connecting and having a great time!

Hey! My name is Luna and I am a third-year IRIO student. For the past 16 years I have lived in Groningen so you can call me an actual ‘stadjer’. In my free time, I love grabbing coffee or going out with friends and exploring new places around the world. I will be this year’s Chair of the C&L Committee and I am very excited to organise all of these year’s events together with my amazing committee!

My name is Yusif and I am a second-year law (International & European Law) student from Azerbaijan, and I will be this year’s Secretary of the C&L Committee. In my free time (of course, if I can find some), I like to draw sketches, watch movies and study cinema. So far, I have written a historical fiction novel and a bunch of short stories. Besides academics, my ultimate goal is to film a movie one day.

My name is Marco and I am an International Relations student from Italy. As PR for the Career and Lecture Committee, I am responsible for promoting our events by creating captivating posters and attention-grabbing texts. I find this a great way to express my creative streak! I also lend a hand here and there for other organisational matters whenever that is needed. I am an avid reader and sometimes I also delve into creative writing. Through the Honours College and my regular studies, I have developed a wide array of interests, including philosophy, geopolitics, economics, linguistics, and green technologies.

Together, we want to provide you with opportunities to learn, grow, and expand your horizons while connecting with fellow students, academics, and professionals. And of course, we will make sure it is also a lot of fun along the way!
