The Department of Communication, Faculty of Humanities at the University of Copenhagen is inviting applications for a tenure track assistant professorship in educational research starting on December 1, 2024 or as soon as possible thereafter.
Applicants should have a strong, established, and independent research profile that complements the section’s research profile in new and original ways. Applicants should provide a research plan that demonstrates how the applicant’s research profile and plans will interact with, contribute to, and influence the research environment at the Section for Education in the years to come.
Applicants should have expertise in specific empirical fields within education. We are especially, but not exclusively, interested in applicants with a research profile within one or several of the following three areas:
(1) early childhood education and care, which for example concerns children’s everyday life, perspectives and participation, including childism research; equality and inequality in relation to childhood; forms of pedagogy and management in daycare,
(2) pedagogical and social psychology issues, which may involve an interest in understanding pedagogical assumptions about development, learning and subject formation, and how such assumptions are activated and gain significance for children and institutionally,
(3) empirical social science methods, which refers to an interest in the entire repertoire of empirical methods, both quantitative and qualitative.
Applicants are requested to describe how their research profile resides within one or several of these areas, and how the applicant plans to contribute to and interact with the existing research environment at the Section for Education. Applicants are also advised to demonstrate how their teaching profile contributes to and interacts with the existing teaching elements at the Section for Education. Our new colleague must be interested in collaborative teaching, and in participating in further development of the section’s already strong research profile and supportive research environment, where collegial collaboration has a high priority.
The Section for Education at University of Copenhagen has a distinctive research profile characterised by critical, theoretically underpinned, and empirically rooted analyses of education in its practical, institutional, and professional forms with a particular interest in critical empirical studies of institutional forms for education. The section’s research develops theory about the implications and conditions of education by means of analysing current and historical educational ideas, programs and concepts, didactic relations, educational practice and interactions, and structural relations in education. We study education in-between the humanities and the social sciences, and in relation to social, cultural, economic and political processes.
The Department of Communication is home to approx. 80 faculty members, 35 PhD students, 20 postdocs, 30 part-time lecturers, 20 administrative staff, and 2000 students. The department annually generates approx. 30 million DKK in external research funding, and it produces research and scholarship that is world leading, and which sets the agenda for many national initiatives and conversations. The department offers seven degree programs: Philosophy, Rhetoric, Education, Film and Media Studies, Communication and IT, Information Studies, and Cognition & Communication educating successful candidates to many sectors and parts of Danish society and beyond.
