Ludwig Boltzmann Gesellschaft Career Center

The LBG Career Center aims to improve the career perspectives of pre- and post-docs at Ludwig Boltzmann Institutes, especially in sectors outside of academia. The LBG Career Center also acts as a sparring partner for the institute directors and supports them in their role as the supervisors in charge of the pre- and post-docs.

It is the mission of the LBG Career Center to achieve the following goals:

• Provide insights into alternative career paths outside of academia to support the continuing careers of pre- and post-docs
• Prepare and qualify researchers for the job market outside of academia by strengthening the image of pre- and post-docs
• Promote openness and networking by positioning the LBG as “Think & Do Tank for intersectoral career development” and actively link partner organizations in science and business
• Foster a more intensive knowledge transfer between science, business, and society by acting as a multiplicator and responsible employer
