Career
Under the common frame of MAPEX and in collaboration with the central university services, the participating faculties and institutes offer a number of supporting measures. These measures address school pupils, undergraduate students as well as all levels of Early Career Researchers (ECR) all the way up to a professorship. In this context we pay special attention to equal opportunity and diversity issues.

Equal Opportunity and Diversity
The role of MAPEX is to consolidate and further develop equal opportunity measures from the running coordinated DFG programmes in a way that also researchers not involved in these programmes can profit from them. Therefore, regular meetings of a core group including all equal opportunity and diversity representatives of the coordinated projects, the faculties, and the whole university take place.
