Teach. Research. Co-create. The HAW professorship career path at H-BRS

Hochschule Bonn-Rhein-Sieg would like to attract motivated, committed and well-trained people to the HAW professorship career path. The PeP@H-BRS project was launched to make this career path more visible and emphasise its potential.

The PeP@H-BRS project

The PeP@H-BRS project ("Future-oriented personnel recruitment and development for professorial staff at H-BRS") supports Hochschule Bonn-Rhein-Sieg in breaking new ground in the recruitment, promotion and long-term retention of professors.

This currently includes the development of an employer brand that makes visible what constitutes an academic working environment: quality in teaching and research, openness, equality, diversity and collegial cooperation. With programmes such as the priority professorships and postdoc tandems, the project specifically supports individual academics. Raising awareness on the topics of gender and diversity is also one of the project's focal points.

President Marion Halfmann is in charge of the PeP@H-BRS project. In close cooperation with the Equal Opportunities Office, the Human Resources Department and the Communications and Marketing Unit, a long-term concept is being developed to strengthen H-BRS as an attractive and future-oriented employer.

PeP@H-BRS is funded by the Federal Ministry of Research, Technology and Space (BMFTR) and the Ministry of Culture and Science of North Rhine-Westphalia (MKW NRW) as part of the federal-state programme "FH-Personal".

Gender Consultancy

Josephine Kullat supports researchers in specifically taking gender aspects into account in project proposals and courses. She also designs and leads target group-orientated workshops - for example on topics such as gender bias or gender and sustainability. She combines academic expertise with a clear commitment to gender equality. After all, genuine equality of opportunity is not just a funding criterion, but part of practised scientific quality.

The professorships and postdoc tandems

Tandem-Postdocs und Schwerpunktprofessoren_Schulz

The PeP@H-BRS project has established professorships and postdoc tandems at Hochschule Bonn-Rhein-Sieg.

The professorships were set up to create targeted space for research in socially relevant subject areas. They help to address current scientific issues with practical relevance and incorporate these into teaching and transfer. The reduced teaching commitments allow professors to deepen their own research projects and expand collaborations within and outside the university. All professorships are located in the field of sustainability, which strengthens the university's research profile in the long term.

The Postdoc Tandem Programme prepares early career researchers specifically for an HAW professorship. Participants combine two positions: an academic position at Bonn-Rhein-Sieg University of Applied Sciences and a simultaneous position at a cooperating practice partner. Through this close integration, the postdoc tandems acquire and deepen their teaching experience, research skills and the practical professional experience required for a HAW professorship.

All tandem positions in the current funding phase have already been filled
