We refer applicants to the requirements of Section 47 LHG of the federal 
state of Baden-Württemberg for details. The position is full-time and 
temporary. 

The University of Mannheim is dedicated to student mentoring and expects 
the candidate to be present on campus regularly and to move to the

increase the proportion of female staff in research and teaching. We 
particularly encourage qualified women to apply. Severely challenged persons 
will be given preference in case of equal qualifications.
