Diversity
FernUniversität expressly embraces and promotes diversity (https://www.fernuni-hagen.de/diversitaet/). We value the skills and unique qualities that our members bring to the table and therefore welcome all applications, regardless of gender, nationality, ethnic or social background, religion/belief, disability, age, sexual orientation, or identity. We actively strive to increase the proportion of women in our academic staff.

Individual needs
At CATALPA, we recognize the reality of a society in which there are diverse needs and requirements for the appropriate organization of work and research. A doctoral program is a challenge for everyone. Physical, psychological, and other impairments may require additional precautions and support. We strive to meet these needs within the scope of our guidelines.
