The deadline for applying for sabbatical leave is 01.10.23.

All permanent employees in at least 50 % positions as professor or associate professor can apply for a 1-year sabbatical leave after 6 years of service, or ½ year after 3 years of service. Female associate professors can be granted sabbatical leave after half of the earning time of the first two sabbatical leave (however this does not apply beyond professorial competence) and, if special circumstances occur, can also be given the opportunity for somewhat greater flexibility in relation to stays abroad.

Representation and guests – regulations

Many of you have visiting guests from time to time, or are responsible for larger or smaller events. In this connection, we would like to remind you that there is a fairly clear and straightforward set of regulations relating to the use of state funds for representation, hospitality and covering expenses for food in such contexts.
