Offered by the Human Resources Development
Get an overview of the most important aspects of an academic career in German-speaking countries. What career paths are there? What do I need to keep in mind? Where are potential obstacles and risks?

Through this task, he has built up a broad knowledge of career paths in a wide range of natural sciences, humanities and social sciences. He works as trainer and consultant in the research sector for several years.
