Fraunhofer TALENTA
Attracting, developing, and retaining more women in applied research is an important goal for Fraunhofer. Through our comprehensive career and development program for female scientists and managers, we are actively working to achieve this goal. Our Fraunhofer Talenta initiative offers targeted support with three dedicated programs: Talenta Start, Speed up & Excellence. Each program is tailored to your needs and individual career stage and provides corresponding qualification opportunities.
Research Manager Excellence Program
Focused on sustainable, future-relevant key technologies and translating research into industry, the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft plays a central role in the innovation process and transfer. The Excellence Program for Research Managers is designed to foster the professional and personal development of young scientists as well as experts and leaders working as an interface between science and industry. It represents a unique continuing education program in the German-speaking region.
Fraunhofer Attract
An idea becomes an innovation when it finds its way into practical application. The “Fraunhofer Attract” funding program offers outstanding external research scientists the opportunity to advance their ideas toward real-world application within a well-equipped Fraunhofer institute.
Leadership@Fraunhofer
Leadership means shaping the future together. At Fraunhofer, leaders play a key role in driving both scientific and economic success. They create the conditions for innovation and foster a flexible, cooperative, and customer-oriented working and research environment. That is why the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft attaches great importance on the development and support of its leaders. With our tailored leadership programs “START LEADING” and “LEADING INTO THE FUTURE”, we offer target group-specific opportunities to reflect on and strengthen individual leadership roles.
