One thousand new tenure-track professorships are being created at seventy-five universities as part of the joint federal-state programme for the promotion of young academics (WISNA programme for short; also known as the tenure-track programme). As part of the structural establishment of tenure-track professorships, academic qualification and career paths are to be made more predictable and transparent. Career paths beyond the professorship are also to be identified.

At Saarland University, thirteen junior professorships with tenure track are funded in the WISNA programme. Further information on the junior professorships can be found on the following page.
Saarland University is pursuing the further development of academic qualification and career paths initiated by the WISNA programme in a comprehensive manner. In its programme ‘Sharpening Profiles - Strengthening Competencies - Promoting Careers’, all academic qualification paths, accompanying measures for personnel development and career support are systematically presented and developed. To improve career paths beyond the professorship, the ‘management track’ was created, which is used to fill academic staff positions in a similar way to the tenure track.
The funding programmes I-Q-WISNA (for junior professorships (with and without tenure track) and executive track positions) and PROWIS-Science-Net (for other postdoctoral researchers) were also established.
