Postdoc at the FH Potsdam

As a postdoc at the University of Applied Sciences Potsdam, you will gain scientific qualifications in projects, gain teaching experience and conduct research in order to apply for a professorship.

A postdoc is usually carried out in a third-party funded project in a temporary position as a research assistant in pay grade TV-L 13 or as an academic assistant in teaching. The level depends on your previous professional experience, which can be credited towards the advertised position. Job vacancies are advertised publicly.

Through our personnel development and young talent promotion programmes, you will be part of a network that promotes exchange among peers and supports you with further training opportunities.

Building on the concept of dual study programmes and in order to enable a successful triad of research, teaching and practice, the FHP is testing dual models for promoting young talent in the P³Dual project, with positions financed equally (50% by the FHP and 50% by the practice partner), opening up career prospects both within and outside the FHP.

The programme enables you to fulfil the necessary appointment requirements  (§42 BbgHG) for a university of applied sciences professorship ‘on your way’ to becoming a professor. At the same time, you participate in our personnel development and promotion of young talent and are part of a network that supports exchange among peers.

Within the framework of P³Dual, all postdoc dual qualification positions have been successfully filled.

Would you like to conduct application-oriented research, teach and work with students, and are you looking for a creative job with a lot of freedom? Are writing applications and third-party funding proposals and finding cooperation partners in practice not insurmountable obstacles for you? Do you enjoy supervising doctoral students and being a role model for young scientists as a good leader? Then apply for a university of applied sciences professorship with us!
