Support structures exceeding departmental responsibilities
The “PhD-Network”
This network is a joint initiative by several universities and institutions offering courses on methodology, especially for the social and economic sciences and the humanities. The “International Research Workshop” in Sankelmark is attended by approx. 80 younger researchers each year and a highlight you shouldn’t miss. The project is coordinated by the team of Professor Matiaske.
Supporting female younger and experienced researchers
Pro Exzellenzia is a program designed to support the career of female researchers, especially in the arts of mathematic, engineering, natural sciences, technology, aesthetics, music and architecture. The HSU/UniBw H is one of the seven Universities participating in this program, that includes high quality workshops.
Networks on Campus
Several times a year the younger and experienced researchers who hold a seat in the academic senate are organizing a convivial evening. Three to four younger researcher present their research in a familiar way to younger researchers from all departments. So by example as a sociologist you learn by example something about new findings an electronic engineer presents to you. The beer, that is served alongside, surely assist in keeping things simple and frees your mind to ask those sociological questions that an electronic engineer might early push forward.
The younger and experienced researchers belonging to the department of Humanities and Social Sciences (GeiSo) meet on an irregularly basis for a “Mittelbautreffen” (please mail to Sebastian Pranghofer, [email protected]). Younger and experienced researches who became already parents can join the “Interest Group Parents” (IG Eltern, please mail to [email protected]).
