6th OC SYMPOSIUM for students

14 May 2025 15:30 - Lecture Hall I (Carl Auer von Welsbach Hörsaal)

This event is aimed at students interested in organic chemistry. In memory of Walther Schmid, a former professor at the Institute of Organic Chemistry, we will award a student for excellent performance in organic chemistry during their Bachelor studies. This is a yearly memorial award which is slowly becoming a tradition at our institute.

A further highlight will be the guest lecture given by Ass.-Prof. Dr. Bart Pieber (Institute of Science and Technology Austria).

Participation is free of charge.
