Pathways to academic appointments:

Extracurricular perspectives for humanities, linguistics and cultural studies students

The fortnightly series of lectures, which takes place every summer semester, is aimed at students of the humanities, linguistics and cultural studies who are not studying to become teachers and would like to find out about possible academic appointments and fields of work. Various people from the field will provide insights into their individual careers and will then be available for a discussion about possible steps, but also difficulties, on the way to the respective field of work. Both relevant professional fields such as librarianship and archiving, science management or journalism as well as more unusual careers will be presented. The lecture will be organised and moderated by two lecturers from School III. It can be credited for the area of specialisation in various modules (registration via Stud.IP). Link to the course.
