Supporting researchers of all status groups
The University of Konstanz and the Cluster seek to offer doctoral students, postdocs, PIs/group leaders, and professors a wide variety of support. For some groups, there are specific offers, such as funding lines that are specifically aimed at the doctoral student in the final phase of the dissertation, or at the professor looking for a teaching substitute for research purposes. Other offerings are available to wider groups, including training that may be of use to all researchers in their earlier career stages, or various forms of support for families.
