  • Grenzübergreifendes Mentoring-Programm „careerSTEPS“

    Concerns/Category: 

    Das Mentoring-Programm „careerSTEPS“ ist ein Angebot für Masterstudierende und Promovierende der OTH Amberg-Weiden, aber auch für andere, die eine wissenschaftliche Karriere oder eine Laufbahn in der freien Wirtschaft anstreben und sich dafür noch mehr qualifizieren wollen oder sich noch nicht ganz sicher sind, was für sie der Traumjob wäre. Dabei steht den Teilnehmenden (Mentees) während des Mentoring-Zeitraumes ein*e erfahrener*e Mentor*in aus der Wissenschaft (z.B. Professor*in, wissenschaftliche Mitarbeitende, Promovierende) beratend zur Seite. Die Mentor*innen werden grenzübergreifend gesucht und angesprochen (für deutsche Bewerbende an der Westböhmischen Universität Pilsen, anderen tschechischen Universitäten und umgekehrt) und unterstützen die Mentees bei der Entscheidungsfindung zur Karriereplanung nach dem Abschluss in der Wissenschaft oder der Einstiegsphase ins Berufsleben.

    Das Programm untergliedert sich in die nachfolgenden Etappen und läuft über einen Zeitraum von neun Monaten (Auftakt im November und Abschluss im Juli). Für jedes Tandem aus Mentee und Mentor*in werden wir das Programm und Inhalte extra maßgeschneidert entwerfen, um spezifisch alle Wünsche und Erwartungen des Tandems erfüllen zu können. Die Zusammenarbeit im Tandem findet in englischer Sprache statt.

    Werbeaussagen:

    Sind Sie sich nicht sicher, was Sie nach dem Abschluss machen möchten? Wäre Wissenschaft etwas für Sie?

    Schwierige Entscheidung … Was würde mich in meinem Berufsleben interessieren? Wäre Wissenschaft etwas für mich?

    Wie sieht eine wissenschaftliche Laufbahn denn aus? Gute Beispiele ziehen …

    Die Welt endet nicht nach der Grenze, ich möchte meine Berufsmöglichkeiten um eine internationale Erfahrung aus dem wissenschaftlichen Bereich erweitern …

    Wie kann man eine wissenschaftliche Laufbahn mit der Familie gut vereinbaren?

  • Invitation for international students to it-sa in Nuremberg

    Finding a job after graduation is often more difficult for international students than for German students. At the same time, the shortage of skilled labour does not stop at the IT sector. So why not support both sides and bring students and companies together? And where better to do this than at a trade fair?

    The state agency of the federal state of Baden-Württemberg organises joint stands with companies from Baden-Württemberg at various trade fairs in Germany and around the world. This year, they will once again have a joint stand at the IT security trade fair it-sa from 22.10.2024-24.10.2024 in Nuremberg. A trade fair is not only suitable for business contacts and the exchange of specialist topics - it is a versatile platform that can reach many target groups at the same time. That's why they want to try something new at it-sa and take the topic of recruiting. The state agency has come up with something special for this purpose: THE LÄND JOBRÄLLY.

    Job Rälly is intended to facilitate a playful encounter between (international) students and companies looking for skilled labour. A total of 11 Baden-Württemberg companies from the IT security sector have registered for Job Rälly. Stamp cards will be available at the joint stand on all days of the fair, which (international) students can use to approach the participating companies and discuss career opportunities with them. After each conversation, participants will receive a stamp from the company. If a person collects at least six stamps, they can throw them into the lottery drum at the joint stand and take part in our prize draw. Europa-Park tickets and THE LÄND merchandise await the participants. However, the main prize would certainly be a permanent position after graduation.

    Students will also receive free entry to it-sa from the Baden-Württemberg state agency. So there are many good reasons to take part in the Job Rälly.

    If you have any questions or would like to receive free admission tickets:
