Regarding § 7 para. 2 of the foundation deed for the IAAEU, the Minister of Science and Health appointed Mr. Ulber as Director and representative of the Foundation's law department with effect from 1 October 2024 on the recommendation of the Advisory Board and the Director of Economic Sciences.
Before joining the IAAEU, Mr. Ulber was a professor at the University of Halle-Wittenberg, where he was Chair of Civil Law, Corporate Law, and Labour Law.

Mr Ulber has already demonstrated his legal expertise through many specialist publications and commentaries. In 2010, he was awarded the CBH doctoral prize for his dissertation on collective bargaining law in the conflict between collective bargaining autonomy and the duty to protect fundamental rights.
