Tenure-track Assistant Professor in Business, Rural Livelihoods, and Governance
Department of Food and Resource Economics
Faculty of Science
University of Copenhagen
The Department of Food and Resource Economics, Faculty of Science, University of Copenhagen invites applications for a position as assistant professor in business, rural livelihoods, and governance in the Global Development Section.
Over the past decades, we have seen an increasing role and involvement of private actors in governance spheres traditionally associated with national governments. Many such activities (e.g., programs on responsible sourcing, sustainability certification, and carbon emission reduction) are parts of global value chains of key commodities (e.g., palm oil, shea nuts, coffee, tea, cocoa, soy, beef, and timber). They aim to address environmental, social, and economic challenges associated with harvesting or extracting environmental products, carbon sequestration, and biodiversity protection, often in contexts characterised by poverty.
Research is needed on how such business efforts work on the ground, specifically how they impact local producers and the livelihoods and resilience of local residents, alongside sustainable governance of environmental products, the functioning of value chains, and the development of businesses and industries. We are looking for applicants with documented research experience, including empirical qualitative and/or quantitative data collection, within one or more of the following areas:
The tenure track assistant professor's duties will primarily include theoretical and empirical research within the above fields, including contributions to collaborative and interdisciplinary work, publications, scientific communication, and allied research-based teaching with associated examination obligations. The position may also include other duties, like public sector advisory work.
The tenure track assistant professor must have an academic standing showing internationally competitive research and/or have internationally recognised high potential to make a future impact. A successful candidate is expected to have documented interdisciplinary skills.
Assessment of applicants will primarily consider their level of documented, internationally competitive research. The ability to attract external funding will be considered together with outreach qualifications. Teaching qualifications are not mandatory, but documented teaching qualifications and experience will be considered.
Six overall criteria apply for assistant professor appointments at the University of Copenhagen. The six criteria (research, teaching, societal impact, organisational contribution, external funding and leadership) are considered a framework for the overall assessment of candidates. Furthermore, each candidate must be assessed according to the specific requirements stated in the job advertisement.
