Career Event: Options After Your PhD!
Figuring out a career path after your PhD (or any other point during your studies) is the hardest task every student has to face, especially approaching the end of their studies. And the unescapable question is always: “So, what should I do next?”

Scientific day for high school
The association of USMS Young Minds Physics organised a series of scientific and technical activities in the framework of technology transfer and the export of scientific skills to high schools.
A day at the National Physical Laboratory
This year, 5 SCOPE members visited the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) in Teddington, London. For over a century, NPL has been a synonym of excellence, contributing to the UK technological and economic development. More recently, NPL has started expanding to several locations in the UK, including Scotland. The latest is in close partnership with the University of Strathclyde, which prompted our interest and facilitated the logistics involved in our visit. We were welcomed to NPL by Richard Burguete, Postgraduate Institute (PGI) director, and met several NPL PGI students over tea and biscuits.

7th EPS Young Minds Leadership Meeting
In early May, the Faculty of Nuclear Sciences and Physical Engineering of the Czech Technical University in Prague (CTU) had the privilege to host the 7th EPS Young Minds Leadership Meeting. Members of the YM Action Committee met approximately 50 delegates from all over Europe, who presented their sections’ activities covering outreach, professional development and networking events. The Leadership Meeting was organized by the Prague EPS Young Minds section, founded in 2015, and a member of the Czech Physical Society (CPS) and the Union of Czech Mathematicians and Physicists (UCMP). CTU Prague and the BNL-CZ framework also provided support to the meeting.
