Get involved

We want you!

Your contributions are very important and welcome! If you would like to help us organize events, welcome newcomers to the department or represent your peers at department conferences, we’re always glad to have you on board!

Every member of the VMB is invited to vote or run for office in the association’s elections, and we organize monthly meetings that you can freely attend to stay updated with the latest happenings at D-BSSE. The VMB is very uncomplicated - we are all busy scientists and understand that it's very hard to make any time out of your research work. Therefore you can freely walk into a VMB meeting whenever you want! We meet every first Friday of the month at 12:00 in BSS room H 10.1.

You are automatically represented by the VMB if you work at D-BSSE as:

  • Doctoral student;
  • Oberassistent;
  • Postdoc;
  • Scientific assistant;
  • Senior scientists.

You are automatically a member the VMB if you are both:

  • scientific assistantdoctoral studentpostdocsoberassistent, or senior scientis at the D-BSSE
  • Member of AVETH (Association of Scientific Staff ETH)

You can check if you are a member of AVETH in your payslip (the monthly contribution is usually deducted from your salary).

The VMB membership is tied to an AVETH membership. By signing up for VMB you will automatically become a member of AVETH.

To become a member of VMB and AVETH, you have two options:

  • Tick the box to contribute to AVETH in the semester registration on myStudies.
  • Fill out the AVETH form.

That's all!
