The President of the Technical University of Berlin, Christian Thomsen, has shown understanding for the resignation of his counterpart Sabine Kunst from the Humboldt University and called for another amendment to the Berlin University Act.
“With the amendment, the state of Berlin put a painful damper on the internationally acclaimed success story of the Berlin universities.
Berlin - Sabine Kunst's resignation is a clear expression of this, ”said Thomsen on Tuesday in Berlin.
Art had named the amendment to the law that came into force at the end of September as the reason for its resignation at the end of the year.
The aim of the legislature to create more plannable and attractive life and career paths for highly qualified young scientists cannot be realized in the current formulation of the law.
"That is why I call for constructive and open discussions with politicians as soon as possible, in which the universities sit at the table on an equal footing, and we can talk together about an amendment to the amendment," said Thomsen.
