Professional fiascos are inevitable occurrences. The important questions revolve around how to handle them and utilize them when going forward. The Fiasco Fest offers a platform for junior researchers to exchange experiences and learn how to joyfully move from rejection and failure towards personal and professional development.
The workshop aims to shift perspectives on setbacks, encouraging participants to embrace them and explore constructive ways to address them. It aims to create a supportive environment where career challenges in academia are openly discussed, humor is shared, and individual resilience is strengthened.

CareerPlus 3: What the heck is tenure track?
Tuesday, November 12th 2024, 1:30-3:30 p.m., Online
Tenure track is a relatively new concept in the German university system. A tenure-track position offers you the opportunity to immediately transition to a permanent position after successfully completing the probationary period (the so-called tenure-track phase). Most tenure-track positions are associated with a professorship; less common and less well-known are lecturer or researcher positions with tenure-track.
The workshop will focus on tenure-track professorships in Germany and address the following questions:
- What are the specifics and legal conditions of tenure-track positions?
- How do selection committees work and how are evaluations organized?
- What are duties and tasks of a tenure-track professor?
Where do I get help and orientation beyond my home institution?
Speaker: Dr. Rebecca Thier-Lange, expert in appointment and evaluation procedures for professors and junior research groups, strategic personnel development, science management and promoting scientific careers
