Commitment to Inclusion
Our RTG recognizes that in the past some prospective scientists have been held back by bias or discrimination.
We are committed to inclusion and equal opportunities for all persons without regard to:
- age or disability,
- culture or nationality,
- race or religion,
- family- or socio-economic status,
- gender or sexual identity or orientation,
- or any other personal characteristic or condition,
so that science can be practiced in a healthy work environment for the benefit of all members of the community.
We attempt to cultivate a diversity-sensitive and equitable scientific community in which all of its members can flourish scientifically without being held back by bias or discrimination.
Non-Standard Models (outreach)
The RTG recognizes the importance of a wide range of views for fresh ideas and progress.
Since its inception its members have strived to advance non-standard ideas and identities, perspectives and persons (m/f/d), and share these with the wider public. More information can be found on the outreach page.
Multiplicities in and of Physics Seminar – Diverse Perspectives, Shared Curiosity: A Seminar Series Exploring Career Paths in and out of Physics
We are organizing a monthly seminar, (usually) on Fridays from 11:00-12:00 in Zum Großen Windkanal 2, Room 1.207, to provide career orientation for physics students from a variety of perspectives. Speakers will discuss both technical aspects of their work and their career paths. Connection through Zoom will be available.
