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) supports all junior career levels, from doctoral candidates to tenure track professors in the WiN Academy. We are convinced that supporting junior scholars is fundamental for successful research. Therefore, we support all junior scholars with training, funding and guidance.

Junior scholars face many 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 broad training programme specifically tailored for 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.

Registration and login via BayDoc.
