We strive to increase the proportion of women as they are underrepresented, particularly in academic positions (article 7 (3) of the Bavarian equal treatment act). We are committed to equality of opportunity and to a proactive and inclusive approach which supports all under-represented groups. Severly disabled applicants are underrepresented and will be given preference in the case of equal qualification, ability and professional achievements. The selection process uses aptitude diagnostics. Appointment to the public service can take place for EU citizens who have not yet reached the age of 52; if this condition is not met, you will be employed without public servant status.
