Compass2Career aims to support master's students in expanding their competencies in the areas of research, teaching, and knowledge transfer. For this purpose, they are integrated as research assistants (WHKs) into existing team structures at the faculties of HTWK Leipzig and receive comprehensive insights into the university's scientific community. This is intended to spark their interest and curiosity in a scientific career and transparently outline the necessary steps for achieving it.
Through the program, we bring master's students and professors together: master's students support professors as research assistants in research projects and teaching. In doing so, the students expand their academic competencies, learn about possible career paths in science, and gain insight into the professional profile of a university of applied sciences (HAW) professorship.
