Support of Equal Opportunity and Diversity

We are committed to providing equal opportunities for all our employees, affiliates and guests.

We are committed to

  • protection against any kind of disadvantage and discrimination,
  • acknowledgement of neurodivergent learning and working strategies, and
  • DEI sensitive recruitment.

Our gender equal opportunity strategy has five specific objectives:

  1. to aim for a balance gender ratio among all researchers,
  2. to improve the gender balance in leadership positions and decision-making committees,
  3. to increase employment opportunities for female scientists in their next career phase,
  4. to increase awareness of gender bias in supervisory and staff selection processes, and
  5. to further develop a gender-balanced academic culture.
