What does KaMe皇冠足球体育_足球比分直播￥中国竞彩网 offer you?

The mentoring program at the universities of applied sciences (皇冠足球体育_足球比分直播￥中国竞彩网s) in Saxony-Anhalt supports early career researchers with special consideration of 皇冠足球体育_足球比分直播￥中国竞彩网 specifics.

In bilateral mentoring meetings (one-to-one meetings) with experienced mentors from science and practice, you will work on individually agreed topics and goals. The exchange with mentors is intended to inform and encourage you with regard to your personal career path within or outside of academia.

The mentoring relationship aims to improve career-related networking and provide mental support along your career path.

The supporting program, which is specifically tailored to the needs of the cohort, additionally promotes your qualification, development and, last but not least, networking among each other. Take the opportunity to exchange ideas with peers and benefit from the experiences of other early career researchers.

If you would like to participate as a mentee in the career-mentoring program of the 皇冠足球体育_足球比分直播￥中国竞彩网s in Saxony-Anhalt, you should meet the following requirements.

1. you are in an academic qualification phase (doctoral or post-doc phase)
2. you are a member or graduate of an 皇冠足球体育_足球比分直播￥中国竞彩网 or university, preferably in Saxony-Anhalt.

In addition, the following criteria are a basic prerequisite for a successfully certified completion of the mentoring program.

1. independent identification and approach of a suitable mentor and active maintenance of the contact
2. mandatory participation in the individually arranged mentoring meetings (on average once a month)
3. mandatory participation in the supporting program (kick-off workshop, mid-term review meeting, and closing event).

The mentoring relationship

The right match is everything!

We want to ensure successful and sustainable matching between mentee and mentor. Therefore, the identification and approach of suitable mentors is up to you as a mentee. The kick-off workshop, which takes place as part of the kick-off event, is designed to help you analyze your specific mentoring needs and to find and approach suitable mentors for your requirements and goals on your own initiative.

Who can be a mentor?

Mentors are professionally experienced persons in leading positions in science and practice (business, industry, social, cultural and educational sectors). They fulfill the following criteria:

• professionally experienced researchers (post-docs) and professors
  • ideally at least 5 years of professional experience (in the 皇冠足球体育_足球比分直播￥中国竞彩网 and/or university sector)
  • national or (and if applicable) international origin
  • members of the own university or external to the university

• Professional practitioners in leading position
  • at least 5 years of professional experience

The mentors bring in their voluntary commitment as a personal requirement for participation in the mentoring program. They see themselves as multipliers who support early career researchers on their personal path. In this self-image, they accompany, advise, and encourage the mentee.

The mentoring meetings

The frequent meetings with your mentor - about once a month - form the core of the mentoring program. The meetings can be arranged individually by you. It is up to you whether you hold the meetings online, by telephone or in person. We recommend at least 3 meetings in person.

To ensure a successful mentoring relationship, a mentoring agreement is concluded between mentor and mentee. In this agreement, the concrete goal, possible wishes of the participants, mode, regularity and number of individual meetings are defined. A corresponding template is provided for this purpose.
