WiN Academy - Support for Junior Scholars of all Career Levels

Supporting junior scholars is of great importance for the University of Bayreuth. The Junior Scholar Office (WiN-UBT) accompanies all junior career levels, from doctoral candidates in the University of Bayreuth Graduate School up to tenure track professors in the WiN Academy. We are convinced that the assistance of junior scholars is fundamental for successful research. Therefore, we support all junior scholars with training, funding and guidance.

Junior scholars face a variety of challenges: scientific excellence, data management and analysis, presentation techniques, teaching, project management and an overall high workload. Additionally, they need to decide whether to stay in academia and prepare for their career after the doctorate or postdoc. The WiN Academy offers information and a wide training programme specifically tailored to Junior Scholars and their responsibilities and aspirations.

The University of Bayreuth Graduate School offers its members a broad workshop programme on transferable skills and methods, funding support and orientation and consultation. For further information on the doctorate at the University of Bayreuth please see here.
