Past events in 2021

  • Thursday, November 4, 2021, 12 noon - 1 pm (s.t.).

    Before we go into the Christmas break, we are pleased to welcome Prof. Dr. Stefan Peters (Chair of Peace Studies at JLU and Director of the German-Colombian Peace Institute/Instituto Colombo-Alemán para la Paz - CAPAZ in Bogotá) as a guest at our last Postdoc Get-Together this year. As a researcher with a particularly high level of third-party funding in FB 01 with strong overlaps with FB 03, he will tell us about his experiences in acquiring third-party funding and will be available to answer your questions. Prof. Dr. Peters' research projects are characterised by a high degree of interdisciplinarity and internationality. How do you start such international cooperation? And how does it become a project? Find out more about the process of initiating such projects and what you should bear in mind when submitting proposals and generally working scientifically in an international context.

  • Thursday, September 16, 2021, 12 noon - 1 pm (s.t.).
    By the end of the workday, the to-do list has once again grown longer instead of shorter.... At the Postdoc Get-Together in September, Dr. Jennifer Heiny will present a few time management tools that can help you as a postdoc to manage your workday more efficiently.

    In June, Tobias Meyer (Advisor for professorship appointment procedures and evaluation, Human Resources Department, JLU) will be our guest during the Postdoc Get-Together. He will provide insights into his work regarding evaluation procedures concerning tenure track positions of the faculties of GGS. We will also discuss sources of information for tenure track procedures and professorship appointments. For example, do you know what the "Satzung der Justus-Liebig-Universität Gießen zur Bewährungsfeststellung" says? Find out more and bring your own questions (preferably ahead of time via e-mail at ).

    We are happy to welcome Dr Sabine Fritz during our Postdoc-Get-Together. Aside from research and publications, teaching skills are crucially important during professoral appointment procedures.

Dr Sabine Fritz will answer all your questions regarding teaching and tell us about her work with future professors.
