As part of its target agreement with the state of Hesse, the University of Kassel has pledged to fill 10 to 15 percent of new appointments through a tenure-track process in the future and to use the 13 additional professorships acquired through the federal and state tenure-track program for this cultural change.
The administrative funds of the tenure-track program available until 2027 from the so-called strategy supplement will be used in Kassel in the following fields of action:
- Consulting and Coordination of new offers for tenure-track professorships, for example in the area of university didactics.
- Career counseling and coaching.
- Support for (international) networking in scientific and non-scientific fields.
- Measures for equal opportunities and better compatibility of family and career.
