Postdoc

Did you finish your PhD in the fields of sport or health management, and would you like to continue your scientific career as a postdoc? We are looking forward to your unsolicited application and we are willing to support you in obtaining funding if there is no vacant position at the Chair of Sport and Health Management. Being a postdoc means that you have a very high motivation to do high-quality research and publish in peer-reviewed journals.
