The Universities of Bremen and Bremerhaven Provide Information on Pathways and Prerequisites for a Professorship at a University of Applied Sciences
A professorship at a University of Applied Sciences (HAW) offers the opportunity to define your own areas of focus in research and/or teaching, combines academic freedom with institutional security, and allows for a healthy work-life balance.
But how does one become a professor at an HAW/FH? What are the prerequisites, and what factors should you consider when applying?
We invite you to join us—alongside professors from both institutions—to address these questions during an online information session hosted by the Universities of Applied Sciences of Bremen and Bremerhaven on Thursday, October 7, 2026, from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m CET (Central European Time).
Discover just how diverse the pathways to an HAW/FH professorship can be, what daily life as a professor entails, and why taking the leap into a professorship at an HAW/FH might be a rewarding step for you.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Sylva Hils at shils@hs-bremerhaven.de or Kim-Nicola Kück at kim-nicola.kueck@hs-bremen.de.
