Women in Academia

Role models are an inspiration. Learning from successful female researchers and lecturers what motivates them, what their values are, and how they have overcome obstacles can be helpful. Not only - but especially - for women at the beginning of their academic careers.

In the video series "Women in Academia", members of our Faculty answer five personal questions. We would like to thank these women for their commitment and openness and would be happy if their different personalities inspire you.
