We’re looking for ambitious researchers with a strong track record e.g.
in semantic technologies, artificial intelligence, or adjacent fields, 
and you have innovative ideas that break conventional boundaries, we 
want to hear from you. This is an open-topic call: the subject is yours 
to define, as long as it complements our interdisciplinary research 
portfolio in Hannover - see L3S Research Center (https://l3s.de), CAIMed
(https://caimed.de) and TIB (https://tib.eu).

What we offer:

A tenure-track W2 professorship (5 years), with the potential for 
conversion to W3 full professorship after successful review. An 
enriching research environment at one of Germany’s major universities, 
embedded in a modern, green city with excellent quality of life. Strong 
support for mobility, international collaboration, dual-career options, 
work-life balance, and diversity.

Why Hannover & why now:

Hannover offers a vibrant scientific and cultural setting, excellent 
connectivity, green spaces, and a friendly international atmosphere - 
ideal for building bold new research directions. And at Leibniz 
University we embrace interdisciplinarity: from engineering & natural 
sciences to social sciences and humanities.

Please submit your application (cover letter, CV, transcripts) by 18 
December 2025 via our appointment portal. More details are available on
