- For Postdocs
- Für Postdocs
This workshop offers international postdocs detailed insight into the German academic system. The German system is coined, on the one hand, by an unparalleled level of freedom at professorial level, safeguarded by the Basic Law for the Federal Republic of Germany. On the other hand, we have very few permanent positions for postdocs and a special act on fixed-term employment only for academia.
Module 1 will focus on the German academic system, its structure, the politics behind it and how they impact every single postdoc position.
