After a challenging year in which, mostly out of neglect, I didn’t post anything to this blog, I am happy to announce that the intermediate evaluation of my junior professorship has been completed successfully. The process started directly after my second parental leave – my daughter was born the year before – and it involved a lot of time intensive reporting against, both, my official target agreement as well as my own plans and ambitions in teaching and research for the intermediate tenure track evaluation. This also gave me a strong incentive to reflect thoroughly on my role as an academic researcher, university teacher and team supervisor.
I am looking forward to the next three years on the long road of academic philosophy and I’m happy to have the chance to tackle the challenges ahead, both personal and academic.
