The workshop takes you to the Federal Plant Variety Office and the plant breeding company KWS SAAT SE. The focus of the excursions lies on understanding and discussing the development and release of new crop varieties.

You will gain insights into opportunities for plant scientists to work in the private sector or at a federal office. And of course you will meet and exchange with your peers from plant research.
