As a university that offers the entire spectrum of academic disciplines and opportunities across diverse research areas, departments and institutes, all employees of FAU benefit from personal and professional development. Its young researchers prosper through intensive training at the highest international standards, opening all pathways to a successful research career. This approach entails taking on responsibility early on, independent research and teaching and further training within and outside the University. Our professors are ambassadors and role models who set standards for the university community.
