Eine empirische Untersuchung von Verhalten, Motivation und Hinderungsgründen
Wissenschaftskommunikation und die Qualifizierungsphase von Wissenschaftler:innen sind zwei Themen, über die in der deutschen Wissenschaftspolitik seit einiger Zeit intensiv diskutiert wird. Beide Debatten verlaufen weitgehend unabhängig voneinander, haben aber inhaltliche Schnittmengen; etwa, wenn von politischen Stakeholdern Erwartungen an die Wissenschaftskommunikation von Forschenden geäußert werden und dies von Promovierenden und Postdocs (Early Career Researchers) als zusätzliche Belastung in einem ohnehin schon von Leistungsdruck geprägten akademischen Umfeld wahrgenommen wird. Für beide Themen ist immer wieder zielgerichtete Forschung und ein qualitätsgesichertes Monitoring gefordert worden. Inzwischen widmen sich viele Disziplinen der Wissenschaftskommunikationsforschung – das Fachgebiet wächst. Auch die Datenlage zu Early Career Researchers hat sich seit etwa Mitte der 2010er Jahre sukzessive vergrößert. So ist mit der National Academics Panel Study (Nacaps) 2017 eine Längsschnittstudie aufgebaut worden, die systematisch die Karriereverläufe von Promovierenden und Promovierten untersucht.
Perceived Impacts on Individuals, Institutions and Society. An exploratory study.
Internationalization has been presented as a universal good, as if to create a cross-border, cross-cultural or global connection is to automatically trigger a flow of all-around benefits (…). The claim is made often enough about benefits to the common good (…) but the claim has mostly been couched in very general terms (Marginson 2019). The internationalization of research is no longer a self-evident principle. Purpose and goals need to be defined and explained more than ever before (Deutscher Bundestag/Parliament of the Federal Republic of Germany 2017). In order to explore the magnitude of impacts at a multitude of levels, seven programmes for funding of postdoctoral research stays abroad offered by two research funding organisations in Germany, namely the Volkswagen Foundation (VWS) and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation (AvH) were selected.
Perceived Impacts on Individuals, Institutions and Society. An exploratory study.
What are the impacts of long-term international mobility funded by selected initiatives and programmes of the Volkswagen Foundation and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation that postdoctoral researchers of all academic fields and their hosts perceive at various levels, and how sustainable is the cooperation between former fellows, hosts and host countries? The focus of the study was not limited to positive benefits and aspects of added value but it explored the whole range of impacts, including the negative ones. Moreover, the impacts were investigated from two perspectives, namely that of the fellows and that of their hosts. Finally, neither a comparison of the programmes and initiatives, nor of the foundations, nor an evaluation of the effectiveness or performance of the funding was intended.
