Professional skills

To best prepare our young researchers for future careers, both within and outside academia, their professional skills and competencies need to be fostered. We therefore also organize courses on a large range of professional skills, e.g. on publishing in journals, giving presentations, acquiring third-party grants, research and project management, intercultural communication, conflict management and leadership skills.

More qualification opportunities for young researchers can be found at KIT, e.g.:

• for PhD students e.g. at the Karlsruhe House of Young Scientists (KHYS)
• for Postdocs at the KHYS Postdoc Office
• at the service unit PEBA (Human Resources Development and Vocational Training)
• at the KIT Research Office (FOR)
