The Berlin University Alliance (BUA) is an alliance of Freie Universität Berlin, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Technische Universität Berlin and Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin. Together, they are pursuing the goal of creating and shaping an integrated research space in Berlin. This alliance aims to establish Berlin as a leading international science location. All workshops and events offered by the Graduate Studies Support Program are funded by the BUA and therefore free of charge.

Objectives and Content

In this workshop, we’ll talk about the job market for academics in Germany (and go over the differences between the German and international job markets).

•    What makes the German job market unique? How does it differ from the job market outside
     of Germany?
•    What differences are there in typical career paths for doctoral researchers in
     Germany and abroad?
•    How do rules and regulations on labor in Germany affect the job market and the
     hiring process? How might this differ from the international job market?
