Dual Career Couples

Double careers in partnerships are increasing. Particularly among academics there are more and more couples where both are highly qualified and pursue an academic career without wanting to forego children and a fulfilled family life. At the same time, finding a job in a highly qualified area is often difficult for the partner.

We offer the following support to Dual Career Couples:

• Counselling and information
• Support in the search for individual solutions
• Cooperation with the departments, some of which develop their own measures
• Help with the search for a nursery school
• Support in case of relocation (e.g. advice on finding accommodation, changing schools, etc.)
• Information on continuing education opportunities
• Information about job placement institutions
• Support from the university management / the President in the partner's applications

What we can't offer:

• a job guarantee
• a guarantee of a study place at the RPTU or other universities
• performing tasks for the Employment Agency
