Helmholtz Distinguished Professorship – Call 2026

The Helmholtz Association is intensifying its efforts to attract outstanding women scientists from abroad to the upper management levels.

Full professorship positions are a defining element of any research institution. As joint appointments with universities, they are also an important link between the non-university research organization Helmholtz and its university partners. Together, we offer top women researchers a professorship at W3 level with the “Helmholtz Distinguished Professorship” program.
