Whether it's a junior professorship, a position at a university of applied sciences, a private university, or a traditional university professorship - at the Karriereforum Wissenschaft und Forschung 2026, we will shed light on the different types. Experienced professors from the UA Ruhr will provide personal insights. Register by 2 March!

Under the heading “What kind of professor are you?”, you can reflect on your questions in individual exercises and in discussions with other participants: Which path leads to the respective option? What are the special features? What are the requirements?

After the introduction, we will not only offer talks on university and junior professorships in the humanities and social sciences or in natural sciences and engineering, but also on HAW professorships and those at private universities. The decision on which session to attend is up to you.

The event is aimed at advanced doctoral researchers and postdocs at the UA Ruhr. Take advantage of this opportunity to network with other early career researchers on their career paths.

Language of the event will be German. Participation is free of charge.
