What criteria are used to carry out the tenure evaluation?
The examination is conducted on the basis of a self-evaluation report of the candidates, three to five external reviews, and teaching assessments by the students. The assessment is made on the basis of the assignments and the performance indicators that were set and agreed upon at the time of the appointment. In order to pass, candidates are required to show excellence in the research category. The assignments in the teaching category must be fully complied with. The tenure commission may consider outstanding achievements in the research and teaching categories as the determining criteria in their decision. Other assignments and responsibilities need to be fulfilled in the categories of involvement in the academic self-administration, promotion of junior researchers, and acquisition of competence in personnel management.
