Workshop "Between Career Goals and Family Plans"
2026-04-23 09:00 - 16:00
Antje Rach of “Worte & Wandel Training Coaching” will host an exciting day full of discussions on the topics of work, career, and family planning:
Between Career Goals and Family Plans
Navigating career and (possible) family life in academia
This workshop invites researchers in the PhD phase and early project leadership who are
navigating questions around career planning and family life — whether they already have
children, are expecting, or are simply exploring if and how parenthood might fit into their
academic path.
Together, we take a closer look at what it really means to “balance” career and family in the
context of academia: What exactly do I want to balance – how much ambition, how much
caregiving, how much space for myself? What are my values, resources, and role expectations
in this context – and which expectations come from my environment? What structural
conditions am I facing – such as mobility requirements, time-limited contracts, or pressure to
publish? And how do I want to (re)set my plans and priorities accordingly?

IRTG Workshop Science Communication
2026-06-18 09:00 - 13:00 | Flex Geb. Seminarraum EG, Weyertal 115c
The Team of the University of Cologne department of Comunication and Marketing, lead by Dr. Elisabeth Hoffmann, offers for our SFB a Coaching and Training morning in science communication. Addressing different target groups in science and society is a challenge, especially for young scientists in basic research. However, mastering this challenge is necessary in order to establish oneself in research in the long term. In this first workshop, the different target groups and their requirements will be examined and strategies developed on how to approach them.
