Abstract: The compatibility of work and care responsibilities represents a key challenge for equality policy within the university context. Although this topic is increasingly addressed in public debates, there is often a lack of robust data and nuanced perspectives at the institutional level to develop targeted support measures. Against this backdrop, the Equality Council of…
Abstract: This article examines the German Science and Humanities Council’s (Wissenschaftsrat) 2025 position paper on personnel structures in the German academic system and its reception. The paper proposes a function-based reform introducing a new model with clearer, more diverse staff categories – including a new „science-adjacent“ (wissenschaftsnah) tier – to replace the existing opaque catch-all…
Abstract: Student employees are among the largest yet least researched groups within German higher education. Despite their importance they remain only partially integrated into the regulatory framework governing employment relations in the public sector. Drawing on concepts of labour relations, precarity, and informality, this article examines how different regulatory arrangements shape their working conditions. The…
Abstract: This article examines universities as diverse workplaces by comparing the working and employment conditions of academic staff, professional support staff, and student employees. Drawing on survey data from Technische Universität Berlin, it identifies substantial differences between these groups with regard to employment arrangements, perceived work-related strain, and opportunities for autonomy, while also highlighting challenges…
Abstract: This paper examines the personnel and employment structures at private universities of applied sciences in Germany. Theoretically, the study draws on concepts of employment regimes routed in sociology of work and industry, as well as approaches to the governance of academic work. Based on data from the Federal Statistical Office, six employment regimes are…

Abstract: About a quarter of all students in Germany enter higher education having already completed vocational education and training (Kroher et al. 2023). At the same time, many students experience doubts about their studies and consider dropping out (Next Career 2021). When deciding whether to continue or discontinue their studies, students with pre-tertiary vocational qualifications…
Abstract: Students show a higher prevalence of mental disorders compared with the general population. The psychological distress seems to be even increasing over the last years. This study examines the current mental health status of university students and their use of support services such as ‚Psychisch fit studieren‘ and ‚Mental health first aid‘. Although nearly…
Abstract: Generative AI chatbots are increasingly used by university students for emotional support beyond academic purposes. This exploratory study examined how AI-based interactions relate to loneliness and perceived support among students. In an online survey (N = 137), students reported moderate levels of loneliness, with about one third experiencing elevated loneliness. Perceived social support from…
Abstract: Loneliness is increasingly discussed as a psychosocial risk in higher education, particularly in digital and flexible study formats. This article examines how asynchronous digital learning paths in blended learning courses affect students’ experiences of social connectedness. Based on a mixed-methods study with teacher education students, the findings show that social connectedness does not emerge…
Abstract: Loneliness among students is a growing problem in the university context. This study investigates which aspects influence the experience of loneliness and what role loneliness plays in student satisfaction and the development of thoughts about dropping out. In a recent university project, 290 students were surveyed quantitatively. The results of the regression models show…
Abstract: Students, mostly young people in the phase of emerging adulthood, often experience emotional, social, and existential loneliness. The experienced loneliness can have relevant consequences for academic performance and thus, further endanger students’ mental health – which is at risk in the first place. Factors leading to loneliness can be localised on personal and inter-personal,…
Abstract: Universities operate within a system of structural uncertainty and unequal employment conditions. Human Resource Development (HRD) therefore faces the challenge of ensuring both operational stability and innovation-oriented development. Ambidextrous HRD can meet this challenge by simultaneously maintaining routines (exploitation) and promoting forward-looking developmental processes (exploration). Central to this is empowerment: HRD creates transparent structures,…
Abstract: This position paper examines the use of artificial intelligence in distance education from the perspective of instructors. While research and practice have primarily focused on student use, the role of educators remains under explored. Based on key building questions, the paper analyzes opportunities and limitations of AI integration and derives emerging competency requirements for…
Abstract: Long periods between signing a contract and starting vocational training often lead to uncertainty, loss of contact, and dropouts, especially among young people. Studies show that limited communication during this phase weakens emotional attachment to the employer. Structured preboarding helps by maintaining early contact, providing orientation, and creating a sense of belonging. The example…
Abstract: Human resources development is often seen as a clearly defined professional field – but is it really a career dead end? Or does it, in fact, open up a wide range of opportunities both within and beyond the organization? We explore this question in the following interview. Our interviewee brings many years of experience…
