Alumni

The Potsdam Institute is keen to keep in contact with its alumni in Germany and worldwide - both former PIK staff members and former guest researchers.

PIK maintains a contact database for former staff members and guest researchers from all Research Departments. This helps the institute stay in touch with its alumni as well as giving insights on their careers and successes. Where possible, we like to inform our alumni about developments at PIK, and sometimes reach out to them to benefit from their expertise or experience.

Are you a former staff member or international guest researcher and would you like to join the PIK Alumni network? We'd be happy to welcome you! Please fill in this short online registration (or print and fill in the registration form (English / German)).
