Research-related positions outside of universities and non-university research institutions …
are high on the wish list of many researchers who transition from their university to a non-academic career after completing their doctorate and postdoc phase. Dr. Amke Eggers and Dr. Ann-Kathrin Klaas, both graduates of Clausthal University of Technology, have successfully made this transition and will discuss their career paths and share their personal experiences with those who still have this journey ahead of them.
Welcome to the TU Clausthal PostDoc Office
The PostDoc Office at Clausthal University of Technology serves as a contact point for all matters relating to postdocs at Clausthal University of Technology. The group of PostDocs at German universities is very diverse and ranges from recently graduated young researchers with short temporary contracts to established researchers and lecturers in permanent positions. We are the direct point of contact for questions and concerns relating to career development or information and training needs.
The PostDoc Office also develops and supports a program for various career stages of postdocs. In close coordination with the Executive Board and other staff units, structures are created to provide a helpful framework for working here. Advice and coaching servicesare just as much a part of the portfolio as target group-specific workshops and seminars.
To find out more about the situation of PostDocs at TU Clausthal, a survey has been created, which you can find here . If you are a PostDoc at Clausthal University of Technology, you are cordially invited to take part.
If you have any questions or further concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us.
