The central role of teaching at the universities of applied sciences is not considered as an obstacle to research and transfer activities at the EvH Bochum. However, the expansion of research-based transfer at our university will only succeed if those colleagues who are involved in the acquisition and implementation of transfer projects are also given recognition and support. For this purpose, EvH has developed a support package.
In addition to the research professorship and the sabbatical semester, EvH supports the use of compensatory means to relieve the burden of teaching through teaching assignments or research assistants (in the form of teaching under supervision). In addition, EvH supports all university members in the acquisition and implementation of third-party funded projects. Finally, EvH promotes close practical relevance by expanding teaching practice research. All these measures shall establish and expand regional, supra-regional and international networks.
