Equality at the Medical Faculty
The gender equality office works towards the inclusion of aspects relevant to equal opportunity in the faculty development. It accompany the decision-making processes of relevant steering committees and participates in staffing procedures, especially in the context of appointment committees. The equality plans and reports required by law are coordinated by the department and made available on the homepage. In addition, the gender equality office supports the conception of measures to optimize equal opportunities and advises academic staff on equal opportunity and career issues. Individual consulting appointments can be arranged.
"Men and women shall have equal rights. The state shall promote the actual implementation of equal rights for women and men and shall work towards the elimination of existing disadvantages." (GG Art. 3, para. 2). Further legal foundations for the equal opportunity mandate result in particular from the NRW State Gender Equality Actand the Higher Education Act of North Rhine-Westphalia. The gender equality office of the university provides a synopsis of the most important passages of the Higher Education Act relevant to equal opportunity as well as a copy of the NRW State Gender Equality Act.
The university and faculty regulations also provide a framework for action and specify objectives.

Equal Opportunity Plan
The equality plan is the result of the previous equality work as well as the basis for the future implementation of the legally prescribed equality mandate.
The starting point is the still unachieved equality of women and men in higher positions in science and clinical practice, as illustrated by this graph for the cross-section of scientific qualification progression (according to the most recent data available at the end of 2017).
The proportion of female professors has increased significantly in recent years and currently amounts to 25% of W1 professorships, 22% of W2 professorships, and 10% of W3 professorships (as of 2017).
Among physicians, female physicians are overrepresented in assistant and specialist positions, and they currently account for one-third of senior physician positions (April 2018).
