Prof. Dr.-Ing. Jörg Wallaschek, who was elected as the new President of Paderborn University on 15 November 2023, will not take office on April 1 as planned.
According to Jörg Wallaschek, a move from Hanover (state of Lower Saxony) to Paderborn is not possible for him due to civil service and pension law reasons. He informed the Chairman of the University Council, Prof. Dr. Jürgen Brautmeier, of this. He expressly regretted not being able to take up office under these circumstances.
The current Executive Board of Paderborn University under the leadership of Prof. Dr. Birgitt Riegraf will remain in office until a new President is elected.
