A professorship at HM: your opportunities

14 departments, over 100 degree programmes, interdisciplinary research, an interdisciplinary school for digital sciences and AI (MUC.DAI), a centre for entrepreneurship (SCE), innovative, high-calibre teaching, top positions in national and international university rankings: HM is one of the most diverse and leading Universities of Applied Sciences (HAW) in Germany.

They do not merely impart academic content, but also share their own practical experience. Students benefit in many ways from their application-oriented knowledge and skills. Together, they benefit from the excellent student-to-staff ratio and close collaboration: they know all the students and are able to provide them with individual support. In the laboratory or on projects, they work together to tackle practical issues.

Teaching and conducting research – on your own projects or collaborative ones –, maintaining networks, helping to shape our university, and taking on responsibility: as a Professor at HM, you can make the most of the considerable freedom you are given, continually seize new opportunities and fulfil your potential to the full.

HM carries out Applied Research and development – in close collaboration with partners from industry, civil society and the political sphere. In this way, we ensure that our work is closely aligned with real-world practice.

Munich is a business hub and centre of innovation; the start-up scene is booming and benefits from a high-performing infrastructure. The path from the research laboratory to practical application – both within the region and across Europe – is short, and the partner networks are closely knit and very dynamic.

We support a healthy work-life balance in a variety of ways. As a Professor, you are free to organise your working hours as you see fit, apart from your teaching commitments, and you can, of course, work remotely.

We are constantly developing our family-friendly services. Together, we identify your needs (managing expectations) and possible solutions.

Whether it’s work, family or personal matters: in difficult circumstances, we’re here to support you with personalised advice if you’d like it.

For us, diversity means recognising the diverse skills and experiences of people, and understanding and harnessing them as potential. We practise and promote diversity in all areas; we have enshrined equal opportunities for all in our "Hochschulentwicklungsplan 2018". This means that we cater to the very different needs of people at HM.

Attractive professional networks, countless educational, artistic and cultural opportunities, events, sporting highlights, one of the world’s largest city parks and a river you can swim in right in the city centre: at Hochschule München, you’ll be working in a city that’s fantastic in every way. Mountains and lakes are just an hour’s train journey away – and the most beautiful regions of our neighbouring countries are also very close by.

Our three campuses in Maxvorstadt (Lothstraße, Karlstraße) and in Pasing (Am Stadtpark) are easily accessible by public transport and also offer underground car park spaces. You will also find a library and a canteen on each campus.
