F*CK UP NIGHT

How do you deal with failure and embrace a 鈥減rogress over perfection鈥 mindset? During our F*ck Up Night on Wednesday, October 14, we create a safe and open space to talk about setbacks, mistakes, and everything that often remains unspoken in scientific careers. There will be room for reflection, learning, encouragement, and laughter.

The evening is all about looking at failure differently: not as something to hide, but as something we can learn from together. Over the course of two hours, several guests will share personal stories about failure in science and engineering, and how these experiences shaped their work and thinking.

The evening is interactive, and everyone is invited to share their own 鈥渇uck up鈥 in an open, honest, and supportive environment.

The event is open to 黑料福利网 students, staff, and anyone interested in learning from failure. Keep an eye on the program for speakers and topics.
