Iohannis retires from his teaching position at “Brukenthal” College. The president held the chair locked for 27 years

The Chair of Professor of Physics of President Klaus Iohannis at the “Samuel von Brukenthal” National College has become vacant and can be filled by an incumbent. After a period of approximately 27 years in which the position was reserved, it became vacant because the President of Romania submitted a request for retirement, announces Ora de Sibiu.

UPDATE 17:50 – The Presidential Administration confirms the information and transmits that “Mr. President has initiated the steps provided for by the legislation in force to submit the retirement file for age limit”.

According to the cited source, the list of positions available for tenure in Sibiu county was published on Monday, April 29, 2024.

Among them is one of the teaching positions for the Physics discipline at the Brukenthal College in Sibiu, with teaching in German, which consists of 18 hours, representing a full department.

The spokesperson of the Sibiu County School Inspectorate, Constantin Dincă, clarified for Ora de Sibiu that the President of Romania submitted his request for retirement for the position of physics teacher, citing the age limit.

Thus, the vacant position could be that of Klaus Iohannis. “Brukenthal College put the physics department up for competition, which means that all that is possible is the president’s chair.

Klaus Iohannis submitted his request for retirement due to age limit. The other professors who have the chair are young”, said Constantin Dincă, according to News.ro.

This position is included in the list of vacancies for employment for a fixed period of 4 years and can be occupied by a candidate with a final certificate, who must obtain a grade or average of at least 7 in the Entitlement exam.

Contacted by Ora de Sibiu, Monika Hay, director of the National College “Samuel von Brukenthal”, did not provide details about this situation. She stated that every year positions are put up for competition, including for the Physics department. “Every year, we put positions in the competition. Even in physics”, explained Monika Hay.
