In this series of short presentations, several administrative units of KIT will inform about their services and support measures for doctoral researchers. Moreover, the Councils of Doctoral Researchers at KIT will give details about their role at KIT and how doctoral researchers can actively engage in them. 10:30 a.m. International Scholars & Welcome Office (IScO) The International Scholars & Welcome Office (IScO) at KIT is the central contact point for everything related to the international mobility of researchers. IScO supports international researchers, lecturers, PhD students, postdocs and scholarship holders who come to KIT for a research stay. It also offers advice to KIT scientists who plan to go abroad or return from abroad. 10:45 a.m. Personalentwicklung und Berufliche Ausbildung (PEBA) The Department for Personnel Development (PEBA) offers continuing education, coaching and counselling for all KIT-members. One of our key competences is to support the learning processes of individuals and teams. For PhD students we provide a broad range of trainings on science related topics like scientific presentation or project management. Focusing on different aspects of personal and professional competences we offer various qualification programs like Keys2Competence (K2C) and the mentoring-program X-Ment. To enhance professional skills in teaching we also carry through the Hochschuldidaktikzertifikat (HDZ). On request we develop specific concepts for teams and institutes at KIT. 11:00 a.m. Relationship Management (RSM) The KIT Relationship Management (RSM) is in charge of supporting students and doctoral students starting a professional career in industry. Therefor RSM offers a wide range of activities: Career Fairs, Job Talks, an advanced KITJobPortal, company-meets-campus events, and personal trainings. RSM holds strong contacts to hundreds of companies from all business branches. Additionally, RSM is responsible for fundraising and sponsoring issues and for the management of foundations like the KIT Stiftung. 11:15 a.m. Councils of Doctoral Researchers at KIT The 2014 reform of the State Law on Universities introduced councils of doctoral researchers at the universities of Baden-Wuerttemberg. At KIT, all doctoral researchers admitted by a KIT-department are members of the council pertaining to their KIT-department. The councils promote networking among doctoral researchers and allow participation in matters of university policy and academic self-government. 11:30 a.m. Karlsruhe House of Young Scientists (KHYS) KHYS serves as a platform for communication and interaction for all KIT junior researchers. KHYS is a central service unit that provides doctoral researchers with advice and assistance and supports them from the beginning of their thesis right through to their successful PhD graduation. It is a university-wide umbrella institution that covers all structures involved in the promotion and support of junior researchers. The services offered by KHYS emphasize the high priority placed on junior researchers at KIT.
