until 2026-10-11

Full-time, permanent

WHAT TO EXPECT

You will be responsible for teaching and conducting research in the field of organic chemistry and catalysis at the Department of Chemical Engineering.

Your work will revolve around dedicated, practice-oriented teaching. You will teach both the fundamentals and application-oriented content, with a particular focus on the role of organic chemical processes in the transition to carbon neutrality.

Promoting students’ personal and academic development will be a top priority for you.

A strong research team and well-equipped laboratories provide an inspiring environment in which to develop key research areas.

You will play an active role in academic self-government at FH Münster.

YOUR BACKGROUND

You have a degree in chemical engineering or a related subject. You have also successfully completed a doctoral degree in organic synthetic chemistry, organometallic chemistry, catalysis, or a related area.

In addition, you have solid professional experience in the industry. You have a good grasp of both the academic perspective and the practical requirements of modern chemical production. A background in technical chemistry, combining knowledge and practical experience, will help you bridge the gap between the laboratory, the plant, and the realities of the process.

In any case, you will support us in the area of internationalisation by teaching with confidence in German and English – you are business fluent in both languages.

Experience in academic teaching, ideally at university level, would be advantageous, as would initial leadership experience.

WE OFFER YOU

A permanent W2 professorship on civil servant conditions will enable you to make a valuable contribution to teaching, research and university management.

You will be able to strike a healthy work-life-family balance.

Our extensive portfolio of professional teaching development will enable you to develop your skills on an ongoing basis.

You can look forward to an exciting challenge as part of our team, with dedicated colleagues to support you from the very beginning.

You can collaborate with students to bring creative projects to life in our new MakerSpace.
