Collegial mentoring for female postdocs
![Post-docs_Beratung](/fileadmin/_processed_/d/3/csm_pexels-thirdman-8485646_ee5bfd9c2c.jpg)
Are you one of the few female postdoctoral candidates in your field, seeking interdisciplinary exchange in an equal and non-competitive environment? Are you aiming for a leadership role, or have you already taken on one, such as leading a research group? Would you like to reflect on the next steps in your professional development and work on your goals within a structured group setting with set meeting dates?
If so, the Collegial Mentoring is the perfect program for you!
Through collegial mentoring, you will set specific goals and work towards them in dialogue with other group members, explore new approaches, and celebrate your successes. Interdisciplinary networking enhances cultural sensitivity and can lay the groundwork for broader research ideas. "Collegial" refers to a group of female academics in similar situations, sharing a common professional focus, but coming from different disciplines. The goal is to support one another in professional challenges and inspire each other in the concrete realization of goals.
Procedure:
On a kick-off event the female academics get to know each other and find a common basis for future mentoring meetings. The group organises itself independently and can be supported by the coordination team.
We will announce when a new group starts here!
If you are interested, you can register at any time by sending an email to Dr Julia Steinhausen (julia.steinhausen@upb.de) and stating the keyword "Kollegiales Mentoring". A short conversation/phone call will follow for information.
