After UN post comes professorship: Professor without research career? Baerbock's new job
Annalena Baerbock is staying in New York after her position at the UN. She is taking up a professorship at the renowned Columbia University. She doesn't need a classic academic career for this.
Annalena Baerbock will join Columbia University in New York as a professor in the fall. She will be Professor of Professional Practice for Global Leadership and Co-Director of the Master of Public Administration in Global Leadership program. Baerbock, the former German Foreign Minister, will take up the post after her one-year term as President of the UN General Assembly ends on September 8.
Her role is a practice-oriented professorship, not a traditional research professorship, and requires no traditional academic background.
