Blickpunkte is structured by five different programme modules. By combining the different elements, the participants are not only able to exchange ideas with like-minded peers, but also with female* employees from their own Faculty and with women* from non-university professional practice. The framework programme serves to structure and give meaning to the other programme modules. For this reason, participation in the workshops is a prerequisitefor further participationin the programme. The individual programme contents are listed in more detail here.
The framework programme consists of
At the group mentoring meetings, a mentor from the academic mid-level fac ulty of Sociology meets with a small group of 4-6 mentees assigned to her and passes on her experience to the mentees. The meetings take place at three different times and are intended to give the participants* an initial insight into the structures, informal rules of the game and individual career paths within the academic world .
As part of the fourth module, we invite two staff, people from academic/science-related professional practice to a round table discussion to show the participants alternative career opportunities and non-academic career paths. These staff, people can come from social science research institutes, the publishing industry, NGOs or consulting organisations, for example.
In order to create networking opportunities with students from other Faculties and broaden their own disciplinary horizons, the programme is supplemented by a fifth module. As part of a cooperation workshop, the mentees meet with participants* from the Blickpunkte programme of the Faculty of History, Philosophy and Theology. In addition to the interdisciplinary exchange of experiences and insights into other academic cultures, the mentees have the opportunity to reflect together on gender-specific experiences and worlds of experience.
