Mentoring for female doctoral candidates
In order to motivate women to pursue a career in academia beyond their doctorate and to inspire them to become professors, Paderborn University initiated the mentoring programme for female doctoral candidates in 2008. Here, qualified female doctoral candidates are brought together with experienced female professors in a one-to-one relationship in order to gain first-hand experience and receive individual and practical support. Among other things, the mentors provide advice on career planning and give constructive feedback on performance and skills. They explain the unwritten "rules of the game" of the academic world and facilitate access to professional and specialist networks. The programme also includes accompanying qualification measures and internal network meetings for the participating doctoral candidates.
