Caroline von Humboldt-Professorship 2026
Nominations for the Caroline von Humboldt Professorship 2026 can be submitted until 27 April 2025.
The Caroline von Humboldt Professorship is awarded to excellent, tenured female professors from all disciplines at HU who are characterised by their international reputation, the relevance of their research findings beyond their own discipline and their outstanding publication activity. The aim of the award is to make outstanding female professors at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin even more visible and to support their work.
As a rule, the professorship is associated with one-year financial support totalling 80,000 euros, which can be used flexibly as support for further careers, in particular as start-up funding for a research project (material resources, personnel, etc.). Proposals from all disciplines will be considered. The nomination for the professorship can be made by the deans, the institute directors and all other members of Humboldt-Universität.
The proposal should include the following documents:
- Nomination Form (in German)
- Reasons for Nomination
- List of Publications of the last ten years
- Three suggestions for external reviewers
