Appendix 3 General Criteria for Habilitation Procedures and Procedures for the

Appointment of Professors at the Faculty of Chemistry of the Brno

University of Technology

Brno University of Technology

Faculty of Chemistry

General Criteria for Habilitation Procedures

and Procedures for the Appointment of Professors

at the Faculty of Chemistry of the Brno University of Technology

approved by the Scientific Board of the Faculty of Chemistry on 18 October 2001

The general criteria for habilitation procedures and procedures for the appointment of professors at the Faculty of Chemistry of the Brno University of Technology (hereinafter referred to as ´general criteria´ based on stipulations of Act No 111/1998 Coll. (Articles 71 to 75) are in compliance with the governing internal regulation of the Brno University of Technology that is ´Rules for Habilitation Procedures and Procedures for the Appointment of professors approved by the Scientific Board of the Brno University of Technology on 28 May 1999. They are aimed at rendering and considering some specific features of research and educational work performed by academic staff in chemical and chemical-technological fields, and at specifying the general governing criteria. Equally important was the effort to harmonise the ´general criteria´ with those adopted by other Czech faculties in the same or related fields.

The ´general criteria´ constitute a guide for applicants and habilitation and evaluation boards in evaluating applicants´ performances. They reflect the desire of the Faculty of Chemistry to maintain the high quality of academic staff performance, and to give an opportunity to up-and-coming academics to habilitate. Evaluation of an applicant´s personality is of prime importance, the given numbers of various types of work and activity are used for verification of the general qualitative requirements for the teacher´s personality in individual categories. The requirements can be standardised only in case of the same or related fields. However, it appears to be difficult even in case of different specialisations at a higher education institution.

The presented quantitative requirements are characteristic for chemical and chemical-technological fields. In evaluating other accredited fields, these criteria should be applied by Habilitation and Evaluation Boards with respect to requirements adopted by other Czech higher education institutions where the pertinent fields are the major areas of learning.

1. Habilitation requirements

Habilitation procedures can take place in accredited fields in compliance with Article 72 of Act 111/1998 Coll. The applicant should be an experienced personality with scholarly qualifications in a definable specialisation either within the framework of the pertinent research conception or creating the basis of his/her own research conception, a lecturing experience or an expert from the professional sector.

   Principal requirements
   

1. 
   The length of lecturing experience at the faculty: 3 years, external applicants 3 years during which time the applicant cooperated with the Faculty of Chemistry of the Brno University of Technology or with a faculty providing education in the pertinent field (lecturing over the whole semester and examining in a compulsory or optional compulsory subject).
   

2. 
   Tutoring of students working on their diploma theses: at least 2 students, in applicant´s capacity as an advisor at least 3 students, and in case of participation in education of postgraduate students at least 2 students.
