Support programmes for young female scientists
UNIFY advises and informs young female scientists about research funding programmes offered by Heidelberg University, the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of Science, Research and the Arts, and other science funding institutions that are specifically aimed at women.
A support programme for female scientists with families enables them to resume or continue their qualifications even with children. Others are aimed at outstanding female scientists who are pursuing a career in higher education.

The aim of the programme, which was relaunched in 2023 by the Ministry of Science, Research and the Arts (MWK), is to guide talented women through the postdoctoral phase with the help of structured postdoctoral positions, to prevent the disproportionate dropout rate of women in the postdoctoral phase and to retain highly qualified talent in science in the long term.
