Lighthouse Career Café teams up with Happy Students Society to welcome inspiring EUR-alumni to share their story on mental well-being. With the aim of encouraging conversations, raising awareness and breaking down the stigma surrounding mental health.
The new college year has started, which means we also created a new set of Lighthouse Career Café's with a variety of different topics. As mental health is becoming increasingly important, we decided that there is no better way to start the new year with a session about Mental well-being in your studies and when you land your first job.
We have invited recently graduated alumni to share their inspiring story with us. Our host will linkup with alumni to talk about their mental health struggles during their studies and after graduation, what struggles they may have faced and explore what career paths they chose after their study.
Theme: Mental Health during your studies and in your (first) job
Host: Ida Löschel | President of Happy Student Society

Throughout history lighthouses have been: beacons of civilization, architectural icons, symbols of human presence and safety, and navigational guides. Within our Erasmian community, alumni stand as our lighthouses, serving as navigational guides for the younger generation. Tune in monthly for inspirational talks with our alumni community sharing their journey of discovering their “why”, what motivates them and how they got to where they are today.
