foundersSCIENTISTS 2.0 - Turn Research into Impact
It is not easy for doctoral candidates to clearly articulate the impact of their research – yet it is well worth the effort. Those who can convincingly explain the (potential) contribution of their work are in a much better position when applying for third-party funding, transfer projects, or academic job interviews.
We invite you to get to know the WTT Impact Canvas – a compact tool for planning, measuring, and communicating the impact of research and transfer projects.

Getting Started for new PhD students & Postdocs
We would like to give scientists who are new to OVGU a little start-up help and regularly offer an open information and discussion round on ZOOM. After an overview of the structure and basic tasks, and a little insight into the not so obvious responsibilities, there will be plenty of time to answer individual questions. We cordially invite you to get to know OVGU in general and the Graduate Academy's services in particular, so that your start will be as smooth as possible. We speak English and German.
