Description
This little book gives short and concise insights into the central areas of activities of professors from the perspective of a university professor who has worked in Germany, Switzerland, and Austria. Many of the aspects emphasized will, however, be relevant and helpful for those who work in countries other than that, especially for those who live outside of Europe but wish to embark on a career as a professor in Europe. The book tells us how things work at European universities, but many of the aspects addressed in it can be transferred to other settings. It presents concrete tips on how to act in individual areas - often in a humorous and entertaining way. This book was writ- ten with several target groups in mind, for which it will be significant on different levels:
Professors...
... will be inspired to reflect on and optimize their actions.
Those who wish to start a career as a professor (especially in Europe) ...
... will learn about the exciting and challenging activities that will be part of their core activities (research and teaching) and what goes beyond that (building new structures).
Staff of professors ...
