The habilitation is only possible in departments which are part of the University of Hohenheim and in which the right to conduct a doctoral thesis is granted. Through the habilitation, the authorisation to teach (venia legendi) is acquired for a specific subject area. The habilitation entitles the holder to use the title "Privatdozentin" or "Privatdozent". The award of the title is linked to the obligation to teach two semester hours per week (per semester) at the faculty.
