Do you have a Ph.D. in the life sciences and want to pursue a career in science? The postdoctoral teaching qualification (habilitation) is one way to provide proof of an excellent academic performance and of the pedagogical-didactic teaching qualification required for appointment as a professor. This postdoctoral teaching qualification gives you the right to teach independently in a certain field of expertise at the Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (venia legendi). The postdoctoral teaching qualification can only be completed in fields of sufficient scientific breadth and importance within the Faculty of Biology at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz. This is determined by the Joint Committee for Questions Concerning the Postdoctoral Teaching Qualification Regulations.
