Lectures have to be conducted primarily in the master’s and bachelor’s teacher training courses in German and English in the assigned professional subjects. Close cooperation with the corresponding subject-specific schools as well as the Berlin vocational secondary school centers that are relevant to the field is expected. A participation in the further development of the teaching-related bachelor's and master's degree by the School of Education at the Technische Universität Berlin (SETUB) is also expected.
Further responsibilities include leadership and management of the work group and its staff, promotion of young scholars, women and social diversity, knowledge technology transfer, internationalization initiatives, gender- and diversity-competent and sustainability-oriented action as well as committee and commission work.
