The starting date for the position is April 1, 2024. The position is available for a fixed term of 24 months and comes with a competitive, full-time salary.

The Centre wants to address major societal challenges and to exchange knowledge with society through high-quality study programmes and genuine engagement with societal actors and the wider public.

The department believes in fostering a stimulating and inspiring environment for both faculty members and students.
