The Dorothea Erxleben Program for Qualification for a Professorship at Universities and Universities of Applied Sciences was launched back in 1994. In this program, a total of 108 women were supported through the awarding of positions.
With the expiration of the university science program at the end of 2006, the funding line for universities and universities of applied sciences will be discontinued; however, the support of women at the artistic-scientific universities through scholarships (MWK) will be continued. The aim of the scholarship is to qualify female artists for a professorship.
