Doctoral candidates and early-stage researchers face a wide variety of professions and career paths open to them. Launching a career and attaining long-term success in these professional fields often demands a wide range of competencies. The Graduate Centre offers training programmes that specifically cater to the needs of early career researchers.

Events offered by or via the Graduate Centre

While our information events address cross-disciplinary aspects relevant to early-stage researchers' qualification, our workshops (organized by the Centre for Careers and Competencies) aim at supporting and expanding the skills involved in conducting research.

The foundation of any scientific work at the University of Passau is compliance with the recognised principles of science such as being honest, working lege artis as well as documenting and constantly questioning all results. Scientific misconduct harms the person concerned, the university and science in general. In order to increase awareness of the basic rules and to strengthen the researchers' trust in one another, the Graduate Centre offers an e-learning course free of charge entitled "Good academic practice".

Please contact us if you would like to participate in the e-learning course. You will receive log-in data and further information that will allow you to take part in the e-learning course anytime from your computer.

Beschreibung

Content:
When you are conducting research, you do things that are also relevant for employers outside of Academia - in the private sector as well as in the public sector. PhD students and postdocs often do not see these connections or do not possess relevant knowledge about job opportunities, application process or networking strategies.
Do not get lost in the jungle of rumors on the job market - or doubt your suitability for a job outside the university!
During the workshop you will identify job opportunities, based on career coaching exercises and analyze your academic profile in terms of transferable skills. You work on developing a personal strategy for planning the next steps to master the transition from Academia to the private sector successfully. Up-to-date-information about job search, network building and application process outside of Academia will be provided.

Goals:
You will be able to
- describe your transferable skills
- plan next steps that are relevant for your individual career development
- consider relevant facts on job search etc. for planning your career

During the optional individual coaching (appointment via CDSL) we will clarify more specific personal questions (on career planning, application etc.).

Participation:
- To participate you need a laptop or computer with audio / video function (microphone and camera). You also need a stable internet connection.
- You will receive an individual login code for the moodle course room for the workshop on 5 days prior to the online attendance date latest
- Preparation phase - prerequisite for participation: approx. 2 hours, on your own time: in the moodle course room you will find materials and tasks to prepare. If necessary, these tasks are supervised by the trainer.
- On the online attendance date, we will work together on interactive learning situations from 9:00 am to around 1:30 pm (short breaks)
- Transfer phase: approx. 2 hours, on your own time: in the moodle course room you will receive feedback, can ask further questions and exchange ideas with the trainer and the other participants.
