With its Research Groups, CATALPA offers scientists excellent conditions to successfully push their research.
Attractively equipped with a full PhD position and a separate budget for research assistants and materials, CATALPA group leaders conduct independent research. At the same time, however, they remain embedded in strong networks. This means that they have sparring partners from different disciplines and career stages. They also gain visibility in the community, not least through our own science communication.
Teaching and continuing education
Through the faculties of the FernUniversität, they have the opportunity to offer independent teaching. They also have access to a wide range of personal qualification opportunities offered by the FernUniversität in Hagen.
