Newly Appointed Professors

Welcome on board!

The Professorial Appointments Unit will gladly assist you with all questions connected to your appointment and arrival at Universität Hamburg. Along with your Faculty, we’re happy to be of service. We’ll put you in touch with the appropriate contact persons in the Executive University Board, Faculties, University Administration, and further institutions.

Our Service for Newly Appointed Professors and International Guest Researchers will support you in your search for suitable housing and childcare, ensuring that you and your family experience a smooth transition to Hamburg. We hope our information and answers to FAQs will provide you with the best orientation and guidance possible. Our newcomer activities for professors and guest researchers are a great opportunity to meet members of the University Executive Board and talk to partners and colleagues from numerous institutions.
