TO TOP

Prof. Dr. Sebastian Ocklenburg

2020-11-26

On Thursday, the 26th of November 2020, Sebastian was elected to the ranks of a professor – a title that is long overdue given his outstanding scientific achievements. Technically speaking, he assumed the title of an “Außerplanmäßiger Professor”. This requires the fulfillment of lots of academic criteria of excellence. In addition, two leading external scientists had to verify that Sebastian could successfully receive a call from their institutions. Their response letters were sparked with words like “a most creative and brilliant experimental scientist”, “at the forefront of research”, “tripled the expectation”, etc. So, it was absolutely clear that Sebastian deserves this title and the committee as well as the rectorate did not hesitate a second.
Congratulations Professor Sebastian Ocklenburg! We all are excited!
