Habilitation

The aim of the habilitation procedure is to give qualified academics the chance to autonomously teach and conduct research at an early stage of their career. Habilitation candidates work under the tutelage of three experienced university professors (Fachmentorat – group of subject-specific mentors), and should complete this qualification within about four years. In order to gain this qualification, the academic discipline must be represented by a chair or professorship at the University of Passau.

Faculty of Social and Educational Sciences staff will be happy to advise you if you are interested in a habilitation at our faculty or are already enrolled as a habilitation candidate.
