Postdoctoral Research (Habilitation)
We are happy to accompany you through all administrative steps - from admission till the end of your postdoctoral research.
Postdoctoral research fellows, who want to become Habilitanden and lecturers (Privatdozenten) should register at the Dean's Office of the Faculty of Chemistry and Pharmacy, PhD and Habilitation Office!
The Habilitation procedure gives young scientists the opportunity to qualify for calling to a professorship and, for this purpose, to perform tasks in research and teaching independently. For further information on habilitations, please contact the chairs and work groups.
Privatdozent (PD) or lecturer, is an academic title conferred at some European universities, especially in German-speaking countries, to someone who holds certain formal qualifications that denote an ability (facultas docendi / Lehrbefähigung - Habilitation) and permission to teach (venia legendi / Lehrbefugnis) a designated subject at the highest level.
