CASA provides funding for childcare, which is available to all CASA employees after regular working hours, on weekends, and for all CASA-related conferences and workshops. CASA aims to enable young researchers with family commitments to fully participate in the academic community.
CASA closely collaborates with the office for Family-Friendly University of RUB. RUB's own bilingual daycare center, UniKids, offers modern, flexible childcare options. The ProKids service is available to all CASA employees and provides advice on childcare options and financial support opportunities.
Room 0.72 in the MC building is available as a parent-child room. In addition to sufficient space for parent and child, the room offers a height-adjustable desk and a mobile children's room. The latter contains various toys as well as a play rug for the floor and can be used as a changing table.
For more information on the availability and use of the room, please contact Kirsten Jäger (k.jaeger(at)rub.de).

RUB has a host of established gender-equality measures that are geared towards Early Career researchers. The mentoring3 program promotes female doctoral and postdoctoral researchers’ scientific careers. In order to establish a truly interdisciplinary network across all research disciplines, female scientists get together at the annual Meet the Female Faculty event, where young female scientists talk with professors from all 20 departments about various aspects of an academic career.
In addition, the Women Professors Forum (WPF) for female professors is part of RUB's efforts to attract women to science, retain female scientists and promote excellent personalities at the highest level at the university. CASA PI Veelasha Moonsamy has been a member of the Executive Board of the WPF since 2024.
