HAWK is a state university in Lower Saxony with more than 6,000 students. The university has strong regional roots and excellent national and international networks. One reason for this is certainly its roots, which go back to the 19th century at the Holzminden site, for example.

The HAWK University of Applied Sciences Hildesheim/Holzminden/Göttingen is seeking to fill the following position in the Research and Transfer Department at the Göttingen site at the earliest possible date, limited until December 31, 2028:

In the process, FIS competencies are developed and expanded by central FIS consultants (m/f/d). In addition, the necessary methods and standards for RI are identified, taking into account the framework conditions of HAW/universities and the specialist disciplines, and made available to researchers and the administration in a structured manner in the form of knowledge and offers.
