When planning your career, you may envision either a traditional university professorship or a less-defined role outside academia. But have you considered a path in professorship that blends both worlds at Universities of Applied Sciences (Hochschulen für angewandte Wissenschaften/HAWs)?

Germany’s Universities of Applied Sciences offer a unique career opportunity!

As a professor at an HAW, you can design your teaching, bridge theory and practice, and inspire students in highly applied fields—all while engaging in research and industry collaborations.

In our upcoming webinar, hosted in collaboration with Hochschule für Technik und Wirtschaft Berlin, one of Germany’s largest HAWs, we’ll break down common misconceptions and guide you through the formal requirements for pursuing an HAW professorship.

We’ll discuss:

    • The opportunities and challenges of an HAW career
    • Whether the “triple qualification” (research, teaching, and professional experience) is truly a hurdle
    • What makes HAWs an exciting and viable option for postdocs and professionals
    • The selection process and what to expect
    • Strategies for a successful application

Join Anne Schreiter, Ph.D. as she speaks with Prof. Dr. Helena Mihaljevic and Prof. Dr. Tine Lehmann, both experienced professors at HTW Berlin.

    • Helena Mihaljević is a Professor of Data Science and Analytics with a background as a Senior Data Scientist in the private sector. Her expertise spans applied machine learning, transparency in algorithmic decision-making, and data-driven research with societal impact. She’ll share insights on transitioning between industry and academia and what makes HAW professorships unique.
    • Tine Lehmann, Professor of International Business and Study Programme Director, specializes in institutional development, SME internationalization, and business networks.
      With extensive experience bridging research and real-world application, she’ll offer perspectives on career pathways, qualifications, and the opportunities that come with an HAW professorship.

Join us as we exhibit what makes HAWs different and why they might just be the perfect fit for your next career step & feel free to share this post with anyone who might be interested!
