Übergänge in Wissenschaftskarrieren: Ereignisse – Prozesse – Strategien (Wissenschaft – Hochschule – Bildung)
by Svea Korff Inga TruschkatWissenschaftskarrieren sind durch notwendige Übergänge im Sinne von Statuswechseln gekennzeichnet, wie z. B. durch die Promotion oder die Berufung. Als ebenso relevant lassen sich die vielen Erfahrungen verstehen, die in den jeweiligen Phasen bedeutsam werden. Auslaufende Verträge, Peer Review und Evaluationen etc. stellen Ereignisse dar, die entscheidend für das Erleben und das Fortsetzen der Laufbahn sind. Diese kleinen ggf. kritischen Ereignisse können somit als eine Vielzahl kleiner Übergänge verstanden werden. Während die Übergangs- und Hochschulforschung oftmals die zentralen Übergänge thematisieren, werden hier Beiträge versammelt, die explizit die kleinen Übergänge diskutieren.

The Ultimate Marine Recruit Training Guidebook: A Drill Instructor’s Strategies & Tactics for Success
by Nick PopaditchThe transition from civilian to that of a Marine is a process unlike any other in any branch of the military. As any potential recruit can imagine, Marine recruit training is difficult and challenging. Its purpose is to mold a Marine from the inside out. Nick “Gunny Pop” Popaditch is best known as the “Cigar Marine” and author of Once a Marine, a candid memoir about his service as a tank commander in Iraq, his horrific wounding in the first battle of Fallujah (where he was hit in the head by a rocket-propelled grenade), and his long and difficult recovery. Gunny Pop has experienced the Marine recruit training process from both perspectives: as a new recruit and as a drill instructor. This new book brings together his nearly 16 years of Marine Corps expertise. The Ultimate Marine Recruit Training Guidebook is a comprehensive, practical, and easy-to-follow guide written specifically for every new or prospective recruit about to enter basic training. Gunny Pop offers step-by-step instructions and solutions, including helpful charts and graphics, for how to prepare both physically and mentally for boot camp. Written by a Marine who experienced it firsthand many times over, Gunny Pop explores what recruits will be asked to do (and in many cases, explain why) and the motivating forces behind drill instructor lessons and behavior. The Ultimate Marine Recruit Training Guidebook was written by a Marine and former drill instructor for young men and women who want to become one of the few and the proud. No one should undertake Marine recruit training without having read this book. About the Author: From East Chicago, Indiana, Nick Popaditch enlisted in the Marine Corps in 1986. He was wounded while commanding a tank in Fallujah (Iraq) in 2004 and medically retired from the Marines in 2005 at the rank of Gunnery Sergeant. “Gunny” and his wife April have two children, Richard and Nicholas. They reside in Chula Vista, California.
The Ultimate Officer Candidate School Guidebook: What You Need to Know to Succeed at Federal and State OCS
by Ryan N. PierceA comprehensive guide to the process of applying and earning your commission. Are you a former soldier, sailor, or airman who left the service without making the most of your potential? Are you a leader in the civilian sector who knows you have more to give back to the country you love? If so, you should consider entering the Army, Army Reserves, or Army National Guard, earn your commission as a Second Lieutenant, and begin or restart an exciting career as a leader in the world's best military. The Ultimate Officer Candidate School Guidebook explains everything you need to know to achieve these goals. Earning the right to become a US Army officer is an honor and a privilege, and the deck is stacked against those over twenty-five because of the rigorous, time-consuming training. However, you can attend OCS to earn a commission as a Second Lieutenant if you: are between eighteen and fortyhave an undergraduate degree from an accredited collegehave or can attain a minimum GT score of 110can pass an Army Physical Fitness Test Getting accepted to OCS is not automatic, and your choice of when and where to enter is limited. Federal OCS, held at Fort Benning, Georgia, and the many state traditional and fast-track programs offer potential officer candidates a choice about how and when to earn their commission. In this book, an OCS graduate and former TAC Officer offers nineteen chapters of information to guide potential candidates down the path of earning a commission in the Army. It covers everything from the application process, to stressers from TAC officers while attending OCS, to deciding what branch to choose upon earning your commission. It even includes pages with pre-made terrain model kits to assist you while attending OCS, for those who are serious about leadership and finishing strong. Are you up to the challenge?
