Equal opportunities in organizational units and research projects
Unit 9.3 Diversity Management implements university-wide equal opportunity measures and advises the organizational units in the design and implementation of their own measures.
Since 2012, DFG-funded collaborative projects have been supported in the development and implementation of equal opportunities measures by Unit 9.3 Diversity Management in cooperation with Directorate 5 – Research (flyer). Programs coordinated by the DFG can effectively contribute to improvements in the areas of gender equality and family friendliness at TU Dresden with the DFG's equal opportunity funds.
