1. We will be holding a lunch gathering called "Get Connected!" on February 21st.
The Women Researchers Support Office will be holding an open lunch gathering as a casual opportunity for researchers within the university to exchange information.
Each time, we'll start with a general theme and chat over lunch about things that pique our interest or things we'd like to ask other participants!
The first one is...
Date and Time: Wednesday, February 21st, 12:00-13:00
Location: Conference Room, 1st Floor, Building 1, General Research Building, Central Campus
Theme: "Time Management" - As a preliminary information exchange meeting for the time management training "Time Management from the Perspective of Roles and Visions" scheduled for March 13th, let's share any challenges, questions, or know-how you have regarding time management!
(Details regarding the training on March 13th will be announced as soon as they are finalized.)
