Mentors have valuable experience in the various areas of professional life which they can pass on. The DPG would like to make this wealth of experience available to its student members. With this exchange of experience, the mentees are given the opportunity to better shape their own development.mehr...

DPG Industry Talks

The Industry Talks, a regional series of events organised by the DPG's Arbeitskreis Industrie und Wirtschaft (AIW), are initially aimed at all physicists working in industry outside universities and research institutions, but are also popular with the general public. The industry talks offer forums for the exchange of experience on topics of physical research, the transfer of scientific findings into applications and current industrial topics, and they promote networking.mehr...

DPG Technology Transfer Forum

With a few exceptions, the transfer of knowledge and technology (KTT) from universities and research institutes to industry and vice versa still plays a mostly subordinate role today.mehr...

Highlights der Physik

The Highlights of Physics (HdP) is a science festival for all curious people. The programme: a big science show with celebrities like "Quarks" presenter Ranga Yogeshwar, an interactive exhibition with physics "to touch and try", live experiments, a competition for schoolchildren and exciting lectures by top researchers. Even "Dandelion" and Peter Lustig as well as Armin Maiwald from the "Sendung mit der Maus" (programme with the mouse) have already been involved. And best of all: Admission is free.mehr...

Laboratory visiting program

Lise-Meitner-Lectures

Lise Meitner was born in Vienna and worked in Berlin for over 30 years. In 1939 she delivered the first physical-theoretical explanation of nuclear fission. She died in Cambridge (Great Britain) in 1968. In her honour, the Austrian Physical Society (ÖPG) and the German Physical Society (DPG) have established the "Lise Meitner Lectures" (LML), which took place for the first time in 2008.mehr...
