As a professor at RWTH, you manage diverse and complex tasks in research and teaching, knowledge transfer, staff management, and strategic organizational development. Your core tasks include, in particular, to manage change processes and support early-career researchers in their career planning and development.

At the Center for Professional Leadership, we support you in performing these challenging leadership and management responsibilities. Through our consulting, coaching and workshop offerings, we offer you opportunities for individual skills development and peer networking.

 

Onboarding for New Professors

Newly appointed professors have the daunting task of finding their way at RWTH, internalizing rights and responsibilities, implementing a teaching and funding strategy, and developing a team. Benefit from our networking events and get to know both new and existing colleagues at RWTH. We also bring you together with contacts and multipliers from outside academia.
