Junior professors have academic autonomy in their research and teaching. The applicant’s subject interests are expected to relate to topics in the area of mathematical statistics and stochastic processes.

As a University of Excellence, Universität Hamburg is one of the strongest research universities in Germany. As a flagship university in the greater Hamburg region, it nurtures innovative, cooperative contacts to partners within and outside academia. It also provides and promotes sustainable education, knowledge, and knowledge exchange locally, nationally, and internationally.
