Titel
Mentoring Program for Female Early-Career Researchers
Übersicht

The promotion of female early-career researchers is of great importance to TUD in order to ensure continuity and progress in various disciplines. The mentoring program specifically supports women in the field of natural sciences in their personal development and professional career planning.

Further information on the program can be found on the website of the GA.

The main components of the program are:

Schwerpunkte
Accompanied by the program coordinator, the program starts with contacting a potential mentor. The female scientist (mentee) suggests potential mentors. These can be employed at TU Dresden or another university or non-university research institution. The mentor must be at least a post-doctoral student or professor. If the desired mentor agrees, the mentee and mentor form what is known as a tandem. The program coordinator is available to answer questions throughout the entire period. However, the mentee and mentor are responsible for jointly defining the number, form, location and content of the regular meetings to ensure that the relationship is tailored to the individual needs and goals of the female scientist.
Lernziele
Active networking among the female scientists and beyond is another important part of the program. In addition to an official kick-off and closing event, additional network meetings and lunch talks are planned, which offer the opportunity to exchange experiences and make new contacts. Through the tandem relationship with a mentor, the mentoring program enables integration into the science community as well as stronger networking both within and outside of one's own university. In addition, further training courses organized by the GA offer the opportunity to exchange experiences with scientists from other departments at TUD.
Methoden

The female scientists can take advantage of coaching for their personal career and career development. This is done in cooperation with and as a supplement to the services offered by the ZfW. One coaching session per female scientist is planned with approx. 2-3 sessions of 90 minutes each.

Possible topics:

  •     Self-marketing
  •     Decision-making
  •     Developing your own leadership skills
  •     Time management
