Academic Career
The German Sport University Cologne supports academic careers in all their diversity — from the first steps in research all the way to a professorship.
The German Sport University as a Springboard for a Career
Whether it’s a Ph.D., postdoctoral fellowship, habilitation & tenure track, or professorship: Each stage of academic development brings its own challenges, goals, and opportunities for growth. We view academic careers as individual journeys and create tailored frameworks to provide researchers with the best possible support at every stage.
To this end, our university offers a wide range of training, advising, and funding opportunities: structured programs, internal funding lines, networking opportunities, as well as individual guidance and career development. Our goal is to nurture potential early on, open up new prospects, and build sustainable academic profiles.
Here you will find information and resources on the individual career phases as well as on suitable funding and support options.
Take an active role in shaping your academic career — we’re here to guide you along the way.
