Publizieren am KIT. Open Access & mehr [ONLINE INFORMATIONSVERANSTLTUNG]
Informationsveranstaltung
online
Simone Merkel, Karin Simianer, Silke Gerber, Tina Zimmermann, KIT-Bibliothek, Abteilung für Publikations- und Mediendienste
Die Veranstaltung zeigt die verschiedenen Services der KIT-Bibliothek rund um das wissenschaftliche Publizieren von Texten, Lehrmaterialien, Dissertationen und Forschungsdaten.
Die Anforderungen an die Wissenschaftskommunikation gehen verstärkt in Richtung von Open Access und Open Science. Mittlerweile verlangen auch viele Forschungsförderer, dass von ihnen geförderte Forschungsergebnisse möglichst unmittelbar weltweit zugänglich gemacht werden. Das wissenschaftliche Publikationswesen befindet sich weltweit in einem Transformationsprozess, der es für Forschende nicht immer leicht macht, den Überblick über Services und Förderfonds zu erhalten. Die Veranstaltung geht auf aktuelle Entwicklungen rund um das Thema Open Access ein und stellt die wichtigsten Open-Access-Publikationsservices der KIT-Bibliothek vor (darunter Repository KITopen, KIT-Verlag sowie den KIT-Publikationsfonds).
Die Veranstaltung richtet sich an Promovierende und Postdocs am KIT (Mitglieder des KHYS).
Technische Anforderungen: Um an dieser Veranstaltung teilzunehmen, benötigen Sie eine stabile Internetverbindung, eine Webcam und ein Mikrofon. Weitere detaillierte Informationen zur Online-Plattform erhalten die Teilnehmenden vor der Veranstaltung.
Eine vollständige Anwesenheit an der Veranstaltung wird erwartet.
Bitte melden Sie sich frühzeitig per E-Mail ab, wenn Sie nicht an einer Veranstaltung teilnehmen können. Damit können Personen von der Warteliste nachrücken und Sie helfen uns, die Qualität der Veranstaltungen aufrecht zu erhalten. Vielen Dank!

Personal Roadmap for Career Orientation. What Skills Do I Have and Where Do I Want to Go? [ON-SITE WORKSHOP]
Workshop
Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT)
Bldg. 30.95, seminar room A+B (1st floor)
Bldg. 30.95, seminar room A+B (1st floor)
Patrizia Köhler, Human Resources Development and Vocational Training (PEBA)
As part of a personal roadmap, you have the opportunity to consciously reflect on your current professional and private situation. You will look at your personal goals and wishes and derive concrete steps for your further career and skills development.
What have I already achieved? What skills particularly characterize me? What are my strengths? What is important to me? How do I visualize a successful future?
The first aim of the event is to take a closer look at the current status quo and generate an understanding of your present situation. Taking stock in this way will help you to take a focused approach to your life and career planning, create a basis for reflection for your longer-term professional and private decisions and work on your individual areas of development in a targeted manner.
In this way, you can develop goals for your further career planning from a holistic perspective and derive the first specific steps.
Please note that a career assessment cannot provide individual career counselling. KHYS offers the following workshops for further career planning:
After the Doctorate. Career Planning for Doctoral Researchers How to Shape Your Future. Career Planning for Postdocs
This event is open to doctoral researchers and postdocs at KIT who are KHYS members.
We generally expect participants to attend throughout the entire duration of the event.
If you are unable to attend an event, please inform us promptly via e-mail. This way you are allowing your colleagues the opportunity to participate and you help us to maintain the quality of our Further Education Program. Thank you!

e-learning
A career in industry is an attractive option for many young scientists after completing their doctorate or postdoc phase. And quite a few actually choose to leave academia with the aspiration of entering responsible positions in the private sector.
However, given that employees in private enterprises often are required to both pursue different goals and work differently compared to employees in research institutions, scientists need to adopt different mindsets and competences for succeeding in a business environment. In addition to specialist professional knowledge, transferrable skills in the areas of management methods, leadership and communication are particularly required.
To give you a head start for a successful career entry in the private sector, this e-learning program provides initial insights into key competences specifically for the business context. A selection of short online courses examines a variety of relevant topics, taking examples from everyday business life as their starting point. Apart from conveying theoretical background information they offer practical advice and provide suggestions for exercises and self-reflexion. Competences acquired by working thouroughly on these e-learnings can also be helpful for similar tasks in other than industrial work contexts, of course.
We have three modules in our Short-Cuts to Industry Program: Management Methods - Leadership - Communication. Depending on your personal needs, you can choose one course per module (they are offered in English, German or other languages) and compile them into your personal self-learning programme. Get fit for a career in industry! Below you can register for the Leadership module.
