Equal Opportunity & Diversity
Talent, creativity and passion – those are the qualities the Max Planck Society and our institute in particular rely on. Our mission is to create a welcoming environment and support employees of all backgrounds, regardless of their gender, nationality, religion, disability, age, sexual identity, socioeconomic status or cultural background. As a STEM institution, we particularly aim to attract female scientists to work at our Institute and to strengthen their visibility in the scientific community.
