InWiDeHo: Interviews with International Academics (Postdocs and Professors)

The research project InWiDeHo examined whether and, if so, what hurdles exist for international academics in transitioning from the postdoctoral phase to a permanent position as a professor at universities in Germany. As part of a qualitative study, international early-career researchers and newly appointed professors were interviewed. Subsequently, surveys conducted at German universities investigated which organizational objectives and measures contribute to overcoming these hurdles. Based on the results, recommendations were derived on how to support the retention of international scientists in Germany and specifically how to increase the proportion of international professors at German universities.
This data package contains the expert interviews with international academics, consisting of twelve interviews with academics in the postdoctoral phase and nine interviews with newly appointed professors.

本研究项目InWiDeHo旨在探讨国际学者在德国从博士后阶段过渡至终身教授职位过程中是否存在障碍，以及障碍的具体情形。作为一项定性研究，项目组对国际早期职业生涯研究者及新任命的教授进行了访谈。随后，在德国各大学进行的调查旨在探究哪些组织目标与措施有助于克服这些障碍。基于研究结果，项目组提出了支持国际科学家在德国的留存策略，特别是提高德国大学教授中国际教授比例的建议。本数据包包含了与国际学者进行的专家访谈，包括对博士后学者的十二次访谈以及九次对新任命教授的访谈。
