The Administration of GEOMAR

We see ourselves across all departments and divisions as part of "Team GEOMAR" with a common mission.

Administration is an important building block that is essential to the success of the GEOMAR mission. We provide the administrative and infrastructural basis for a successful and sustainable operation of GEOMAR. Our work processes and services, which are aligned with customer requirements and framework conditions, create the prerequisites for GEOMAR's excellent scientific work.

  • Appreciation, fairness, respect and integrity are values that characterize our work.
  • We live openness, interculturality, equality and diversity.
  • We see ourselves as part of a constantly changing and developing top-level research institution.
  • We are open to new developments and shape change (pro)actively and constructively.
