On 30 January 2023, the time had finally come, the official foundation of the new local group Young-DGM Augsburg was notarized. The event started with an exciting laboratory tour at the Institute for Materials Resource Management (MRM) and was rounded off with a joint dinner at the end of the day. About ten committed students and doctoral candidates took part in the founding ceremony. Together with the two speakers, Lina Moreno and Tharun Arety, they set themselves the task of building up the local group.
The Young-DGM Augsburg should contribute to strengthening the professional cooperation of students and doctoral students at the location. As a new local group within the DGM family, it offers all members the opportunity to exchange ideas and network.
The founding of the Young-DGM Augsburg not only means important support for the next generation in materials science but also offers a chance to strengthen nationwide professional networking and cooperation. The first supra-regional meeting with other young MatWerkers at the federal level is planned for April this year. The DGM Nachwuchsforum will take place from 24 to 25 April 2023 at the University of Kassel. Networking, making contacts, exchanging experiences - that's exactly what the forum invites you to do.
Many thanks to all those involved in the founding of the Young DGM Augsburg and have fun at the upcoming events!
