Core competencies for postdoctoral fellows and young scientists

An academic career can have very diverse goals, which can be pursued individually depending on one's interests. To obtain a university professorship, both a strong interest in research and a passion for teaching are prerequisites for achieving this career goal. In addition to the professional requirements, the young scientists should also have additional key qualifications that support their everyday research work.

The Faculty attaches particular importance to the continuous training of young scientists and the qualified supervision of doctoral candidates. Applicants for admission to habilitation must provide evidence of at least four continuing education courses on core competencies for young scientists and university teachers. Participation in further training to ensure good scientific practice is mandatory.

We are launching the HHU cigarette butt week!

Cigarette butts are the most frequently discarded waste product worldwide.

When the filters are washed out, for example by rainwater, thousands of chemicals can be released. A single cigarette butt can contaminate up to 40 litres of groundwater. The WHO speaks of up to 7,000 substances in corresponding sun and weather conditions. The filters are made of the plastic cellulose acetate and it can take up to 15 years for them to decompose, depending on the external environment.

The cigarette butts even seem to have arrived in the Arctic ice. Researchers have found tiny cellulose acetate particles there.

That's why cigarette butts will be collected on the HHU campus for a week until Sustainability Day. On HHU Sustainability Day on 5th July, the collected cigarette butts can be handed in at the  @rhinecleanup stand. There is equipment in the HCSD to join in and registration is possible here.
