About this listen

 Wir sprechen mit Professor*innen aus den vier Berliner Universitäten über ihren Weg zur Professur. Hier geht es nicht um Karriere-Blaupausen, sondern wir wollen wissen: Was waren die entscheidenden Abzweigungen auf dem Karriereweg? Was war im Rückblick besonders wichtig? Was hätten sie gern früher gewusst und was würden sie Postdocs heute empfehlen, die eine akademische Karriere anstreben? Wer oder was hat sie besonders beeinflusst? Und ist es jetzt so, wie sie es sich vorgestellt hatten? Postdocs aller Disziplinen finden im Podcast Anregungen, Tipps und Inspiration, um dem Glück, auch mit ihrem Thema auch zur richtigen Zeit am richtigen Ort zu sein, die Türen weit zu öffnen. Ein Podcast der Postdoc Academy der Berlin University Alliance.
