Support in case of problems and conflicts

During a doctoral project and in research projects, disagreements and conflicts may arise between you and your supervisors or supervisees. In cases of conflict, you can contact the ombudsman of the WiSo Faculty at any time. He is also your first point of contact in cases of violation of good scientific practice and scientific integrity. The ombudsman supports you by means of solution-orientated conflict mediation.

As a matter of principle, the ombudsman treats all enquiries neutrally, fairly and in strict confidence.
