Cooperation at University Association level

The cooperation within the shared ‘Mentoring Programme for post-doc researchers, junior professors and new career researchers’ between the Martin-Luther-Universität Halle-Wittenberg, the Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena and the Universität Leipzig has been running since the winter term of 2013/2014.

The uniqueness of the Mentoring Programme lies within its federal-state-spanning cooperation, which aims to promote gender equality of the up-and-coming graduated academics, as well as in its regional interconnection and synergy resulting from this co-operation.

In 2013, the Mentoring Programme was incorporated into the toolkit of the German research association (Deutsche Forschungsgesellschaft) in the category ‘Research-orientated equality standards’ as an example gained in practice, for use in practice.
