Tenure track
The University of Münster continuously strives to support young academics by providing transparent and dependable working conditions and viable career paths. To this end, it has established a new associate professorship (Juniorprofessur) model with a tenure track for excellent academics while taking into account the various disciplinary cultures at the University. The University is especially committed to increasing the proportion of women academics in attractive positions, providing equal opportunities, promoting internationalisation and expanding target group-specific personnel development measures for all.
To attract highly qualified (international) academics, a tenure track provision was added to the University of Münster's appointment regulations in October 2018. This guarantees candidates a permanent professorship after successfully completing a fixed-term probationary period.
