About the Project

JadeProf is funded as part of the federal and state-level funding line for staff at universities of applied sciences. The aim is to help universities of applied sciences across the country to develop and implement strategic action concepts for gaining professorial staff. The process should become quicker and more effective in the future. The JadeProf project runs from 2021 to 2027.

The project is funded by the Federal Ministry of Research, Technology and Space, the Lower Saxony Ministry of Science and Culture, and the Joint Science Conference (Gemeinsame Wissenschaftskonferenz – GWK).
