Specialised professorships with a family component

The University of Apllied Science Kaiserslautern would like to support research-active professors at the university who are significantly involved in family responsibilities through the priority professorships with a family component. People who take on family care responsibilities sometimes lack the time to advance their research. This is where the so-called family professorships come in and create a balance: in order to better reconcile teaching, research and family, three individuals will be given the opportunity to hire a person to take on teaching duties or the opportunity to award teaching assignments for the duration of the project (until 31 December 2028). This will free up time that can be used for research projects.

 

Prof. Nora Mertes

Prof. Nora Mertes teaches sculptural design and free drawing in the Department of Building and Design. As part of the research professorship, she will focus on clarifying the significance of physical and sensual knowledge in the context of a perception characterised by the dominance of the visual, digitalisation and a translocal understanding of space. Her starting point for this is the ‘Digital Archive of the Manual’. 

 

Prof. Dr. Marion Rauch

Prof. Dr. Marion Rauch is Professor of Steel Construction and Timber Construction in the Department of Building and Design. The focus of her research activities at the University of Apllied Science Kaiserslautern is in the field of fatigue and the needs-based prediction of the service life of engineering structures. Her university-wide research is based in the Sustainable Materials Products and Processes research centre.

 

Prof. Dr. Christian Schumann

Prof. Dr. Christian Schumann teaches in the fields of power electronics, electronics and EMC in the Department of Applied Engineering Sciences. He conducts research in particular on the topics of power electronics development and prototyping and is involved in the research focus on highly efficient technical systems at the University of Apllied Science Kaiserslautern.
