The Presidential Board
The presidential board is the central player in the appointment process. It decides on approval processes and appointment proposals. In 2015, Leibniz University created a separate departmental role in the form of the vice president for human resource development. The Department for Appointment Matters assists the presidential board and faculties at all stages of the appointment process, from advertising professorship vacancies to adopting the appointments list.
University Bodies And Faculties
In addition to the presidential board, the university bodies involved in the appointment process are the Senate and the foundation council and, in the case of tenure-track processes, the Leibniz-Tenure-Board. The dean’s offices and faculty councils, as well as the appointment commissions, and decentralised equal opportunities officers are responsible for local appointment processs.
