Here are some common ways for companies to connect with X students:
Lunch lectures are a perfect opportunity to showcase your operations and provide approximately 45 minutes for a lecture tailored to your preferences. It could range from an overview presentation of your company and career paths available to offering a case study that provides insights into specific industry issues or career opportunities.We handle all practical matters such as marketing, registration, booking of venue, and ordering food for participants. These events can also be organized across sections to reach a larger audience.
Around February each year, the X Section organizes a career week with a focus on life science and materials together with the Chemical Engineering (K) and Engineering Physics in Materials Science (Q) sections. During this week, lunch lectures and a career fair are held, with up to 300 students participating. Participation as a company guarantees exposure to a broad and interested student audience.
DAX is a special career event held every May aimed at creating personal interactions between companies in life science and students within the X Section. Participating companies are given the opportunity to present their companies through a brief lecture and network with students from all years during an afternoon session.
We offer sponsorship opportunities through products such as clothing, bags, water bottles, notebooks, lab coats, distributed during reception weeks and other section events. We also welcome sponsorship in the form of financial support to print your logo on our own merchandise or on our website. Additionally, there are opportunities to sponsor our section events such as student councils, sports activities, banquets, or by participating in organizing your own event!
If you wish to directly disseminate information about job offers, thesis projects, or other relevant matters, we offer advertising through our digital channels such as Instagram, Facebook, the website, and email newsletters.
We also offer unique opportunities such as company visits, evening or breakfast events, case problem-solving, and other tailored activities that suit your needs. This gives you plenty of time to network with students in a more personal and relaxed manner outside of working hours. We are flexible and eager to tailor the collaboration to your specific needs and preferences.Would you like to know more or discuss the possibilities for collaboration with us at the X Section?
