The Peer Coaching Programme "Making a Career after the Postdoc" targets mainly international doctoral researchers in the final phase of their PhD and international postdocs but is also open to German participants who are comfortable with the sole working language of the Programme being English. Details are available.

The programme is based on the principle of peer coachings, meaning that the participants also meet outside the workshops in order to network beyond the borders of their scientific specialization and in order to further develop the contents of the workshops and coaching sessions.

It is not possible to only book parts of the programme, meaning that attendance at all scheduled workshops is expected.

The next round will start in October 2023. Registration deadline: 30.09.2023.

All workshops regularly take place at the Schlaues Haus Oldenburg (Schlossplatz 16, 26122 Oldenburg). If it is not possible to hold the workshops in person, they will be held online. The participants will be informed in time.

Please note:
Due to a large number of very short-term cancellations and unannounced absences in the recent past we would like to point out again that registrations for workshops of the Graduate Academy are binding. Cancellations are only acceptable under imperative circumstances and need to be announced as early as possible. If this is not the case, workshop places that have become available cannot be given to individuals on the waiting list or the workshop cannot be cancelled in due course in the case of low demand. In this case high cancellation fees occur. Under these circumstances the offer of the Graduate Academy cannot be held up in the medium term.
