The University of Duisburg-Essen has established the Dual Career Service to take account of the situation of double-career couples during the negotiations leading up to the appointment of professors. The Dual Career Service makes information available to double-career couples and provides support and assistance during the search for an adequate position or other options enabling the prospective professor's spouse to stay on their chosen career path.
