Equality

Promotion and Consulting

Research


In recent years, 51ÁÔÆæ has stepped up its efforts to promote gender equality in academia: female academics have access to a wide range of career development opportunities through targeted mentoring, training and coaching programs; managers' gender and diversity skills have been and continue to be strengthened.


Gender & Diversity Consulting


Gender & Diversity Consulting is an advisory service offered by the Equal Opportunities Office and is aimed at faculties, research alliances, and individual scientists. Faculties are supported in the conception and implementation of targeted gender equality and diversity measures. Consulting for research alliances includes support with proposals and the implementation of gender and diversity equality measures in joint research projects.

Administration


The professional development of female employees in administration, technology or science management is supported through equality-oriented and diversity-sensitive information, qualifications, and networking offers. Different formats offer female employees and women in leadership positions space for development and exchange, and promote the gender-equitable shaping of working conditions. There are specific measures for female administrators and assistants to complement the HR PE/OE offering.

Study


There are many offers and counselling services at 51ÁÔÆæ to support students in various life situations and in their everyday studies. In addition to offers for career development, the Equal Opportunities Office also includes numerous offers related to diversity as well as information and offers for students, with a focus on family compatibility. All university measures and offers for students can be found on the following pages:

School


The university is especially keen to encourage girls to study mathematics, computer science, natural sciences and technology and offers special programmes in these subjects.

Equal Opportunities Officer


The Equal Opportunities Officer acts in an advisory capacity in equal opportunities-oriented structural and development planning as well as in all personnel decisions at 51ÁÔÆæ. The aim is to work closely with the Office for Equal Opportunities to support the establishment of gender-equitable and anti-discriminatory structures and processes at the university, to develop a gender-equitable academic and organisational culture and to promote the individual potential of underrepresented genders in particular. She supports the university in updating and implementing the Central Gender Equality and Diversity Action Plan (German) and the Gender Equality & Diversity Action Plans (GEDAP) of the faculties.

The university's equal opportunity officer is Dr. Anja Wolde. She is supported in her function by the deputy equal opportunity officer Ulrike Schneider-Gladbach (Main Focus: Counselling for ATM).

Faculty Equal Opportunities Officers


In coordination with the Equal Opportunities Officer, the Faculty Equal Opportunities Officers work towards the implementation of equality in their respective areas. They are elected by the women of the respective faculty or central unit for a term of office of two years and, on behalf of the Equal Opportunities Officer, perform tasks and exercise participation rights, for example in committee work, appointment and recruitment procedures.

Gender Equality Monitoring


Gender Equality monitoring is indispensable in order to be able to speak about equality in an informed way at the university and to make data-based decisions.

This applies to both the planning and evaluation of structural measures and funding activities: Where is there progress, where is there stagnation? How does this compare to universities nationwide? Where can we do better?

GEDAPs


The faculties have an important part in the development and implementation of equal opportunities at 51ÁÔÆæ.

Faculty-specific development goals and measures are identified with the faculties within the so-called GEDAPs and connected to the strategy and development agreements of the Executive Board and the faculties in the area 'VI Equal Opportunities'.
