Student assistants for young female researchers with children

The coronavirus pandemic poses considerable challenges particularly to young female researchers with children.
The aim of support provided by student assistants is to provide more flexibility and to free up time in the schedules of young female researchers in the qualification phase, so that they can continue their research and carry out their duties despite the restrictions caused by the pandemic.

Aims

Support provided by student assistants during research and with teaching preparation.

Scope

Applications can be made for a student assistant for a maximum of 6 hours per week for 6 months.
