Recruitment pursuant to Article 57 (3) of the BayHIG

  • Completed university degree
  • Excellent academic achievements in research and an outstanding doctoral degree or equivalent academic qualification
  • Pedagogical aptitude
  • Special achievements in the application or development of academic knowledge and methods in a minimum of five years of work experience, which must have been acquired after completion of the university degree and of which at least three years must have been acquired outside the university sector. If, over a period of at least five years, a considerable portion of your work involved a cooperation between a university and a non-academic employer, this time may be considered to meet the requirements for non-academic work experience in special cases (pursuant to Article 57 (3) Sentence 1 No. 3 of the Bavarian Higher Education Innovation Act (BayHIG)).

We strive to increase the proportion of women as they are underrepresented, particularly in academic positions (Article 7 (3) of the Bavarian equal treatment act (BayGlG)). We are committed to equality of opportunity and to a proactive and inclusive approach which supports all under-represented groups. Severly disabled applicants are underrepresented and will be given preference in the case of equal qualification, ability and professional achievements. The selection process uses aptitude diagnostics provided by an external HR consultancy. Appointment to the public service can take place for EU citizens who have not yet reached the age of 52; if this condition is not met, you will be employed without public servant status. The professorship is associated with the obligation to offer courses at all locations of the university.
