Consultation & Coaching
For the purpose of a holistic support service for early career researchers, the GGS offers its postdoctoral members consultation on postdoctoral issues. If required, we also support you in arranging (individual) coaching sessions. |
Consultation with our Postdoc Coordinators at the GGS
We are happy to advise you (confidentially, of course) on a wide variety of issues, e.g:
- Postdoctoral phase – what needs to be considered?
- Academic career (e.g. habilitation)
- Alternative careers
(e.g. scientific management or which career option are there for me?) - Compatibility of career and family
- Wissenschaftszeitvertragsgesetz
- Preparation for appeal proceedings
- Strategic acquisition of third-party funds
- Advice on application documents
- Preparation for and support within the application process
Arrangement of (Individual) Coachings
Profit from the expertise of an experienced coach e.g. in the following areas
- Career development
- Acquisition of third-party funding
- Feedback on research proposals
- further topics on demand (please contact us)
We are happy to arrange a coaching and can finance up to 5-7 sessions of 60 minutes each. If you are interested, please contact our postdoc coordinators via postdocs.

Within the framework of the Third-party Funding Experts Programme, a pool of experts has been created who are available for consultation.
