Researchers Recruit Researchers

In order to address the widest possible scientific audience, we would like to recommend further measures to improve the perception of TU Braunschweig as employer in addition to the general advertisement of all vacancies in German and English. We recommend to advertise on the portals of LinkedIn, ResearchGate, PhD Germany and Research in Germany, among others.

We would like to encourage you to present the university at academic events of all kinds or to forward information to your professional networks. Among others, the Personnel Department provides templates for job advertisements in German and English.

All documents can be found in the Information Portal for employees (with login).

In general, it is possible to apply for a position or a junior research group through national and international research funding (e.g. DFG, BMBF, EU, foundations). If you would like to attract promising (young) scientists to Braunschweig and do not yet have access to suitable funding, please do not hesitate to contact us. The team of Research Services and European Office is happy to advise interested international scientists who would like to establish their own research project at TU Braunschweig and to accompany the application process.

European Liaison Office of the German Research Organisations (KoWi) offers a platform for Fellowship Host Offers, which informs interested candidates about the Postdoctoral Fellowship (24-36 months) by the Marie-Skłodowska-Curie-Actions (MSCA) about hosting institutions.

With the Henriette Herz Scouting Program, Alexander von Humboldt Foundation (AvH) offers established researchers the opportunity to bring up to three candidates to a German research institution for 6-24 months with a Humboldt Research Fellowship.

We will be happy to advise you on both programmes.

TU Braunschweig is regularly present at national and international career fairs (e.g. GAIN, MIT European Career Event, Research in Germany Virtual Fair, BCF Career Event). If you would like to participate in a fair - in person or online - or contribute material for display, please contact us.

The Press and Communications Office (SPK) offers an extensive collection of presentation templates and other materials that you can use to present your institutes and research projects and in the context of job interviews. You can find the material for download here (with login).
