Research and Career
Department 4.0 - Research and Career is part of the Central University Administration of RWTH Aachen University.
Our Responsibilities
Networking activities between our researchers at RWTH Aachen University and their sponsors as well as their industrial partners are vital for the successful development of their professional career. Our central mission is thus to provide support for PhD students, post docs, and professors at all stages of their professional career. Based on open and honest communication, our aim is to establish a fruitful cooperation and long-term working relationships. By a variety of impulses we foster not only the research activities but also contribute to increasing the professional success of scientists at RWTH Aachen University.
Department 4.0 - Research and Career consists of three divisions:
Division 4.1 - Technology Transfer facilitates commercial applications of academic research, advises from the initial early stage ideas to intellectual property rights issues in the context of technology transfer. This division is the primary contact for any cooperation between RWTH Aachen University and industrial partners.
Division 4.2 - External Funding Management informs on German and European research programs and policies as well as funding opportunities. This division provides advice and guidance at all stages of a project, from proposal writing to project management.
Division 4.3 - Career Development offers support for all issues concerning the professional development of researchers. It provides customized programs, courses, and individual coaching for researchers at all levels. Career Development also serves as the primary point of contact for companies interested in recruiting researchers.
