Dear participants of the European Career Fair, 

Welcome to the 16th edition of the European Career Fair (ECF). 

We, the co-chairs, Pallavi Murugkar and Dr. Katrin Tschöp, wish you great success at today’s 

fair and in your future endeavors. Even in these times of economic turmoil and financial 

instability many world-class companies and universities have traveled across the Atlantic 

Ocean to scout for talent from prestigious universities. The ECF provides a platform to help 

those companies bridge the gap between Europe and the USA. 

The European Career Fair at MIT is the biggest event of its kind, bringing together more than 

100 companies from Europe and over 4000 job seekers for the mutual benefit of all parties. 

During the past fifteen years we have seen companies and candidates from all sectors and 

disciplines find the right match for their requirements. We hope this year will continue in this 

tradition to create a match between talent and opportunity. 

The success of this career fair depends on the support and partnership of numerous 

organizations. We wish to thank the European Commission for their continued support and 

valuable partnership. We are also glad to have the support of the MIT International Science 

and Technology Initiative (MISTI), swissnex, IKOM and the German and the French consulates 

in Boston. We are grateful for all these collaborations. We are also pleased by the patronage 

of numerous new and returning universities and companies that make this European Career 

Fair a success. 

Last, but definitely not the least, a successful event is not possible without the tireless efforts 

of dedicated and talented people. Once again we are very fortunate to have a great team of 

volunteers who invested their valuable time and energy into making this event happen. As 

co-chairs we are happy to have been able to work with such a great team. Thank you to each 

and everyone that made the European Career Fair 2012 happen. 

We again welcome you all to this event and hope you will find what you are looking for and 

that this career fair helps you to meet your professional goals. 

On behalf of the ECF 2012 team, 

Chairs of the ECF2012

The MIT European Club would like to extend a warm welcome to our 16th European 

Career Fair! We are a student organization affiliated with the Massachusetts Institute of 

Technology having a membership of nearly 3,000 people who come from almost every part 

of the world and share a common interest in Europe. Over the years, the MIT European Club 

has established itself as a reference point for many European scholars, academics, and 

professionals coming to the Boston area. It is one of MIT’s most diverse student groups, and 

organizes activities ranging from athletics to cultural events, along with excursion for hiking 

and whitewater rafting in the summer, foliage tours in the autumn, and skiing in the winter. 

The European Career Fair is our most visible and the most important event on campus. The 

fair is the largest of its kind in the United States, providing domestic, foreign, and 

multinational companies access to some of the top talents from the most renowned 

academic institutions not only in the Boston area, but all across the United States. European 

Career Fair is designed as a several days long event which includes the career fair day, 

company presentation and subsequent interviewing at the Hyatt Cambridge. 

However, we believe that European Career fair is not just an ordinary career fair. In today’s 

highly complex international network of business, science and technology, European 

Career Fair plays an important role in allocating local talent globally. We share the same 

view of importance of internationalization of education with our two main partners: MISTI 

(MIT International Science and Technology Initiatives) and European Commission, with 

whom we have collaborated since 2006. With their help, we have been able to create a new 

section at the European Career Fair, specially dedicated for european universities and 

research institutions, representing not only jobs in Europe, but academic and industrial 

research opportunities as well. As we look ahead at 2012 and beyond, we unequivocally 

believe that our event will continue to grow and serve MIT and international community 

with even more opportunities. 

On behalf of the MIT European Club, 

Predrag Djuranovic, MIT EC President 

Michael Koeris and Sven Loebrich, Vice Presidents

European Research Council 

The European Research Council 

The European Research Council (ERC) is a newly-created European funding initiative, designed to 

support the best scientists, engineers and scholars in Europe. 

The ERC's mandate is to encourage the highest quality research in Europe through competitive 

funding and to support investigator-initiated frontier research across all fields of research, on the basis 

of scientific excellence. 

Grants are awarded and managed according to simple procedures that maintain the focus on 

excellence, encourage creativity and combine flexibility with accountability. 

The ERC, which is established by the European Commission and funded through the EU’s Seventh 

Research Framework Programme with a budget of € 7.51 bn for 7 years (2007-2013), complements 

other funding schemes in Europe, such as those of research funding agencies operating at the 

national level and those within the EU’s Seventh Research Framework Programme. 

The ERC consists of a Scientific Council and a Dedicated Implementation Structure. It operates under 

conditions of autonomy and integrity, guaranteed by the European Commission, to which it is 

accountable. 

ERC Grant Schemes 

What kinds of ERC grants are available? 

Two types of ERC grants are available to support researchers in carrying out frontier research 

projects: 

ERC Starting Independent Researcher Grant (ERC Starting Grant) 

The ERC Starting Independent Researcher Grant (ERC Starting Grant) aims to provide adequate 

support to researchers at the stage at which they are intending to establish or have already 

established an independent research team or, depending on the field, developing an independent 

research programme. Researchers applying for an ERC Starting Grant must be able to demonstrate 

their potential to perform world-class research. 

ERC Starting Grants allow the most promising (young) investigators to make the transition from 

working under a supervisor to an independent research leader at an early stage in their research 

career. 

The ERC Starting Grants may last up to five years and provide a total of up to 2.0 million for a fiveyear 

grant. 

2.1.2 ERC Advanced Investigator Grant (ERC Advanced Grant) 

The ERC Advanced Investigator Grant (ERC Advanced Grant) aims to encourage and support 

excellent, innovative and investigator-initiated research projects carried out by leading investigators. 

This funding scheme complements the ERC Starting Grant scheme by targeting researchers who 

have already established themselves as being independent research leaders in their own right. 

ERC Advanced Grants allow exceptional established research leaders in science, engineering and 

scholarship to pursue frontier research of their choice. 

The ERC Advanced Grants may last up to five years and provide a total of up to €3.5 million for a fiveyear-grant.

Boston, January 2012 

Dear Participants, 

Welcome to the 16 th European Career Fair! Today’s global marketplace means that companies 

must hire the best candidates globally available in order to remain competitive. The annual 

European Career Fair at MIT makes this hiring process easier by bringing together the best 

companies and businesses in one place. For Americans seeking employment in Europe, this 

event is a great stepping stone. This year Germany, the “Land of Ideas”, will again be among 

the leading exhibitors at the fair, representing a myriad of renowned companies and research 

institutions from the country. 

Lufthansa, BASF, Bayer, Merck and Siemens are just some of the private German companies 

participating in this year’s fair. The "who is who" of the impressive German research landscape 

will also be present: world-institutions such as Max-Planck, Fraunhofer and Helmholtz 

Societies, universities distinguished through the "Excellence Initiative" and newcomers such 

as the Hamburg Hafencity University. 

Whether you are interested in technology, climate protection, renewable energy, health, nutrition, 

security or communications, Germany offers cutting edge opportunities in Leading 

Clusters for every career path. 

I wish all the participants of the 16 th European Career Fair an inspiring event with vivid exchanges 

that will leave you with a personal insight on your options in Europe.

I would like to welcome you all to the 16 th Annual European Career Fair. As Consul 

General of Portugal in Boston I wish to congratulate and thank the MIT European Club for 

organizing this most relevant event, which success is confirmed since its first edition in 

1997. 

In an international economic environment characterized by public debt crisis and 

uncertainty, it is a privilege to discover the organization of such an important event. This 

may have significant consequences for the personal lives of all those who try their luck and 

dare to change their destinies, namely by exploring all that Europe have to offer in the area 

of science and technology. 

In the search for change, all parties involved, graduates and employers, academic and 

business, strive for good opportunities of a true partnership which can produce almost 

immediate results. Notwithstanding some clouds over the horizon, what better place could 

we find to organize such an event, than the MIT in this truly international hub that is the 

greater Boston area? 

Let us seize this unique opportunity and give our contribution to the strengthening of 

Europe/USA relations, by sharing common values and interests, and by building at the Fair 

new professional and intellectual bridges between the two sides of the Atlantic. 

Sincerely, 

Paulo Cunha Alves

Yusuf Al-Ghamdi dares to ask. At Siemens, he powers 

his own future selling pioneering power plants. 

Even when he was a kid, Yusuf Al-Ghamdi was fascinated by technology – and the engineer 

never stopped learning more about it. Today this helps him adapt to the groundbreaking 

technology he promotes as a manager in the sales department of the Siemens energy branch 

in Riyadh. The Shuaibah III power plant and desalination project will supply Saudi Arabia’s 

growing population with an efficient and environmentally friendly supply of electricity and 

water – and Yusuf Al-Ghamdi with fascinating career perspectives. How could you turn your 

interests into a career at Siemens? Dare to ask.

Deutsche 

Forschungsgemeinschaft 

The German Research Foundation (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, DFG) is 

Germany's central, self-governing research funding organization that serves all 

branches of science and the humanities by funding research projects and facilitating 

collaboration among researchers. 

The DFG portfolio of programs offers various possibilities for funding of either 

individual researchers – among them programs with a special focus on early career 

scientists – or groups of researchers in coordinated programs. Not only German 

nationals can be funded by the DFG, but also researchers from abroad, if they plan on 

carrying out their research in Germany. 

Some of the DFG’s funding programs are of particular interest to doctoral students and 

postdocs. Among them are: 

• Temporary Positions for Principal Investigators 

• Emmy Noether Program 

• Heisenberg Program 

Some programs are applied for by the university. The doctoral student or postdoc can 

apply for an opening directly to the university, not to DFG. 

• Graduate Schools (funded within the German excellence initiative) 

• Clusters of Excellence (funded within the German excellence initiative) 

• (International) Research Training Groups 

• Collaborative Research Centers 

More information about the DFG‘s funding programs can be found under

Inserm is the only French public organisation entirely dedicated to biological, medical and 

public health research. Thanks to the excellence and the multidisciplinary character of Inserm’s 

300 units or research centres, the Institute is well placed to develop research programmes on 

most human diseases, even the rarest among them. Inserm is also in a position to ensure the 

link between the research laboratory and the hospital bed. The results of fundamental research 

can thus give rise to clinical studies, particularly in the fifty or so clinical investigation centres 

created in partnership with hospital establishments. In 2010, these centres hosted an active line 

of 115 trials. 

Inserm is also involved in the industrial and economic promotion of its own discoveries: 

Inserm Transfert helps researchers to establish proof of concept of their innovation, and comes 

into play for the registration of patents (857 in the Inserm portfolio*) and in the search for 

industrial partners (683 R&D agreements in force and 463 licence agreements underway*). 

The Institute’s European and international presence is today a reality. In 2010, Inserm 

possessed 29 associated laboratories and 5 Inserm units abroad. It is involved in the European 

Research Area, notably via the coordination of two flagship European projects: the European 

Clinical Research Infrastructures Network (Ecrin) and the European High Security Laboratories, 

Level-4 project (EHSL4). Inserm also coordinates 23 Community programmes. 

On April 8, 2009, the French National Alliance for Health and Life sciences was signed around 

common goals with this very purpose in mind, bringing together Inserm, CNRS, CEA, Inra, 

Inria, IRD, the Institut Pasteur, the French Conference of University Presidents and the French 

Conference of University Hospital CEOs. Aviesan is organized into thematic multi-organization 

institutions (ITMOs):

INSTITUT CURIE 

Presentation of the Research Center 

Research at the Institut Curie focuses on the workings of normal and cancerous cells. Why and how do cells become 

malignant and produce tumors? In this aspect, the research center and the hospital group of the Institut Curie have been 

recently awarded a national competitive grant as Comprehensive Cancer Center. 

Research Departments 

The Institut Curie’s research concerns several main themes: Cell biology and Developmental Biology, Immunology, 

Human Genetics and Oncogenesis, Epigenetics and Genotoxicology, Pharmacochemistry, Physical Chemistry and Living 

Systems, Molecular Mechanisms and Oncogenesis, Cellular and Molecular Imaging, Bioinformatics and Systems Biology. 

Basic. Research is conducted at either our Paris or Orsay Campus within several departments associated with the CNRS 

and/or INSERM and with the Universities of Paris. 

The research center has more than 1000 staff members ([staff scientists: physicists, biologists, chemists], physicians 

(MD-PhD), physician researchers, post-docs, engineers, technicians, administrative officers…) and possesses 

considerable financial and technical resources. 

Bringing people together 

True to its founders wish to encourage innovative and creative thinking to tackle complex scientific problems, the Institut 

Curie’s research policy places a strong focus on interdisciplinary collaborative research with the aim of providing fertile 

ground for new discoveries, especially in the field of cancer research. 

This Institut’s focus on interdisciplinary research is illustrated by the three following initiatives: 

• Regular interaction between physicists and cell biologists through joint seminars, cross-disciplinary 

conferences and departmental meetings – a unique opportunity at the Institut Curie. The exchange of ideas and tools 

promoted by this initiative has allowed the development of innovative approaches to tackle many questions in cell and 

cancer biology research. 

• Collaborative research programs designed to promote interaction between research scientists and 

clinicians as well as cooperation with external partners. 

• Our research team start-up program, promoting the work of young scientists, has helped to perpetuate 

research excellence at the Curie Institute. Young scientists thus get to work with more experienced colleagues, generating 

mutual emulation and innovation. 

Cutting-edge research 

Developing new technologies and platforms (imaging, sequencing, proteomics….) is one of the Institut Curie’s principal 

strategies for tackling questions at the frontier of scientific research. The Institute Curie, with the multidisciplinary 

expertise of physicists, computer scientists, biophysicists, physicochemists, engineers and a wide range of biologists in 

developmental biology, genetics, epigenetics and immunology is highly reactive and prepared to face the new challenges 

of science, an essential prerequisite to combat cancer and care for patients with cancer. 

Advantages of working at Institut Curie 

• Provision of fellowships for foreign post-doctoral scientists. 

• Hosting of leading prominent physicians and/or for sabbaticals under the auspices of Yvette-Mayent/ 

Henri-de-Rothschild grant. 

• Advanced research training activities for doctoral students. 

• National and international undergraduate and graduate training programs. 

• Close links with the Curie Hospital to develop new diagnostic and therapeutic technologies. 

The aim of transfer, that is of translational research, is to expedite the application of new knowledge 

in the clinical setting thereby improving patient care. 

• Focus on the impact of discoveries through dedicated departments at the interface of our basic 

research departments, the Curie Hospital and external partners. 

• And High technology such as: Imaging, Cytometry, high throughput sequencing, Bio-informatics…. 

Courses are offered on these cutting-edge technologies.

WE CONNECT 

PEOPLE AND 

KNOWLEDGE 

OUR VISION 

Innovation has brought progress: a prosperous society 

and competitive industry. However, shifting relationships 

around the world and the scarcity of resources 

in areas such as energy, raw materials, space and 

health require breakthroughs in terms of concepts 

and actions. Technological and social innovation 

is crucial to this, and the whole range of technologies 

has a role to play. As the boundaries between 

domains, disciplines and countries fade, national 

and international cooperation becomes increasingly 

prominent. 

TNO has this combination of technologies and wants 

to be at the centre of society where it can put its 

knowledge to optimum use for and with government 

and industry. We have the people with the right blend 

of curiosity, creativity and idealism to make it work.
