Career Decisions and Career Paths of Young Researchers
Our interdisciplinary research project, “Career decisions and career paths of young researchers: An interdisciplinary, longitudinal project on the interplay between contextual demands and personal characteristics” (funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research) has started in 2013 and aims at:
- a better understanding of careers of doctoral students and postdocs from the STEM-fields within both academic and industrial fields by using a longitudinal design
- providing diagnostic tools (e.g., questionnaires, behavioral measures) to be applicable in career counseling as well as in personnel selection and development
Project partners are from different disciplines:
- Psychology (Prof. Bettina S. Wiese, PI)
- Economics (Prof. Christian Grund)
- Sociology (Prof. Roger Häußling )
