One of the key aims of DIMAS is to promote early career researchers.
Through two independent post-doctoral positions, DIMAS offers early-career researchers who work across disciplines and regions the opportunity to conduct their research in line with the focal points of the DIMAS professorships and thereby helping to shape the spectrum of area studies in Regensburg.
Each of the DIMAS professorships also employs further doctoral and/or postdoctoral researchers.
The early career researchers affiliated with the institutional DIMAS membership are also members of the Department.
DIMAS offers a wide range of activities, to which doctoral and postdoctoral students from UR and the Leibniz Institute for East and Southeast European Studies (IOS) are expressly invited to actively participate.
