Postdoc Starter Kit
Table of contents
In brief
For postdocs, the decision to pursue a scientific career means taking an intensive look at their own goals and the competencies required to achieve them at an early stage, in order to be able to advance their own development as well as possible. During the postdoc phase, it is important to gain visibility in the scientific community with an independent scientific profile, to establish contacts wisely and, in addition to specialist expertise, to acquire important competencies, for example in teaching, in the acquisition of third-party funding, in project management and in the leadership of employees.
The aim of the Postdoc Starter Kit program is to support outstanding early career researchers (postdocs) at an early stage in their research career in developing and sharpening their scientific profile and to qualify them for further scientific career paths.
Eligible are doctoral candidates in the final and/or wrap-up phase of their PhD, whose current financial support in form of scholarships, work contracts and/or third-party funding has expired.
