Equality work
Equality means (according to the company's own statement) that the different life situations and interests of women and men are taken into account from the outset and naturally in all developments and measures. The aim is to improve opportunities for women in all areas of the university, i. H. Subjects as well as status and hierarchy groups. The equal opportunities work is carried out by a central equal opportunities officer who is supported by decentralized equal opportunities officers and their deputies. The duties of the equal opportunities officer are broad: it ranges from participation in personnel decisions to the creation of equality guidelines and project management of equality concepts.
The gender equality work can be described as very successful. According to the current university ranking for gender equality aspects for 2015 by the Leibniz Institute (gender report 2015 for short), the Bielefeld University of Applied Sciences ranks in the top group of all universities nationwide; this was already the case in the 2013 and 2011 gender reports. The success - which was awarded the Gender Prize of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia in 2009 - is due to the fact that equality is lived as a holistic concept including the equality concept, framework plan for the advancement of women and the women's advancement plans in the various organizational units. Results are u. a. Family-friendly study and professional conditions, a transparent appointment procedure and active women and gender research.
The proportion of women in professorships was around 32% in 2015, and around 46% in the total academic and artistic staff.
