More than Teaching: Why the Path to Professorship is Worth It
An HAW professorship means not only teaching but also driving research, shaping innovation, and guiding students. But why is the path to a professorship at a University of Applied Sciences worth it? Prof. Dr. Ann-Kathrin Hömme reports on her experiences and scope for design, and on what motivated her to pursue a career in teaching. She talks about opportunities for shaping things, practical relevance, and the motivating work with students.

We know the success factors for a strong application just as well as the pitfalls. We want you to benefit from our expertise!"

5 Misconceptions About Lecturers at Universities of Applied Sciences and Higher Education Institutions:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrGnGl3HqT0
A professorship at a university of applied sciences is often wrongly considered inferior to a university professorship. In reality, it is subject to the same high standards and demanding appointment procedures. The difference lies not in quality, but in focus: FHS professorships emphasise application, practical transfer, and teaching – deliberately designed to link science and practice and prepare students for specific professional fields.
5 Reasons Why You Won't Become a Professor!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rseEMRE5lqY
Securing a professorship is fiercely competitive. Technical expertise alone is not enough – many fail due to other, often underestimated, factors in the appointment process. In addition to expertise, additional qualifications, a strategic approach, and a thorough understanding of the application requirements play a crucial role.

Das explained by the Tandem Model at the Osnabrück University of Applied Sciences on a website:
The „Career Lab (CarLa)“ at Osnabrück University of Applied Sciences is identifying new ways to facilitate access to „University Professorships“, especially for individuals with doctorates who lack sufficient professional experience. A central element is the „Tandem Model“, which offers a flexible alternative to a complete move into professional practice. It allows individuals to continue working in teaching and research, serving as a flexible alternative to a complete change in their field of activity.
Osnabrück University of Applied Sciences has compiled detailed information here about the "Tandem Model":
:::
Small tips for your CV from the German University Association:
"When applying for professorships, the focus is on academic qualifications:
- Publications,
- Third-party funds,
- Teaching and
- academic networks
are at the centre of interest. In this respect, the CV is a structured presentation of the professional career.
But can or should there also be room for personal matters?
Science is not just about expertise.
Universities are looking for personalities who fit in with the respective academic culture, the faculty and the social mission of the university.
Particularly in appointment procedures today, attention is often paid to personality, team spirit, values and interdisciplinary openness. A purely technical CV hardly reflects this. It is therefore increasingly accepted to include personal details in academic CVs - as long as they sensibly placed and carefully chosen."

Series of events:
"#MmyResearch - Digital Visibility of Female Scientists"
and "GENDERmai"
At the Emden-Leer University of Applied Sciences two online events on the topic of the visibility of women in science will take place, to which you are cordially invited. Visibility is an important factor in an academic career. In addition to being known in one's own community, dialogue with society is also becoming increasingly important. But the Impulses from Women for Innovative research are still often overlooked: They have fewer first authorships, are less frequently cited or requested as experts and are outnumbered when prestigious science prizes are awarded. These factors complicate their Scientific career, influence but also the General perception from Women in research.
1. Double Lecture "Visibility as a Career Factor - The gender visibility gap in science", 29.04.2024 from 13:00 - 14:30 Clock. Registration under gs-digital@hs-emden-leer.de - The access data will be sent out on 26.04.2024. Further information can be found in the Calendar of events of the Emden/Leer University of Applied Sciences.
2. "'Liked my content - Science communication through sciencefluencing", 29.05.2024 from 16:30 - 18:00 o'clock. The announcement including the conference link can be found on the Event page for the GENDERmai 2024 Emden/Leer University of Applied Sciences
In the double lecture on "Gender Visibility Gap" will discuss the role played by various actors at universities and their understanding of excellence in the visibility of (early career) female academics and what influence online presences have on the visibility of HAW professors in particular.
The event "Sciencefluencing" deals with science communication in digital media and the question of whether new target groups can be reached through this.
