What does a career working with polymers actually look like?

Join IDA Polymer at DTU for an evening of industry insights, career inspiration and networking!

We have invited three people working with polymers in very different contexts to share what they do, what they have learned along the way, and how they went from being students themselves to building careers in industry.

This year, you will hear about:

🔹 Polymer membranes, start-ups and working with new technologies
🔹 Compounding and processing, and life as a materials supplier
🔹 Coatings, career development and moving into leadership

The event is particularly aimed at BSc and MSc students who would like to learn more about the opportunities available within the polymer industry, but everyone is welcome, regardless of your background or how much you already know about polymers.

The presentations will run from 17:00–18:00, including time for questions. Afterwards, we will have sandwiches and plenty of time to network, ask more questions and chat informally with the speakers until 19:00.

📅 Monday, October 26, 17:00–19:00
📍 DTU, Building 228A, 2nd floor Lounge
Department of Chemical and Biochemical Engineering
Søltofts Plads, 2800 Kgs. Lyngby


🥪 Register by October 21 at 23:59 to be included in the sandwich order.
You are still very welcome to register and attend after the deadline, but we cannot guarantee a sandwich.

Participation is free of charge.

Come and discover some of the many directions a career with polymers can take you!
