New Beginnings in Germany? Rely on Us for Support and Guidance!
Moving to a different country is exciting but can also be stressful. At the International Office, we are here to support you and your family in settling in smoothly. Our goal is to ensure that all scientists from around the world feel welcome, understood, and inspired with us–and that their experience at the institute lays the foundation for a successful career. We want to make your transition to the Max-Planck-Institute as seamless as possible while also equipping you to handle bureaucratic processes independently.
Feel free to reach out to the International Office with any questions you may have before your arrival, during your stay in Germany, or before your departure. Please contact us as soon as possible. Some bureaucratic processes can take time, and early contact ensures we can help you efficiently. We look forward to welcoming you to Frankfurt soon!
