Job description

FASoS is seeking a full professor who is an expert in teaching and research in the field of Social and Political Philosophy with an emphasis on models of democracy, citizenship practices, the relations between politics and culture, and theories of power and resistance.

Research is carried out within the context of the faculty’s Research Institute for Arts and Social Sciences and, in particular, relating to the interdisciplinary research programme Politics and Culture in Europe. The selected candidate is expected to develop international research projects and to attract external funding that is related to and in dialogue with an interdisciplinary research approach.

S/he will contribute to the teaching and coordination of courses and supervision of internships, projects and theses in the BA and MA programmes of the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences. The division of teaching and research duties follows the regular division used at the Faculty of 60% teaching and management and 40% research. The research time can be extended through external fundraising.

Requirements
The candidate should display outstanding quality in research, strong leadership qualities, a well-developed research profile which is recognised in the field; s/he has a relevant international network and is open to an interdisciplinary approach.
S/he should be an experienced and enthusiastic teacher with a demonstrated ability in thesis supervision, teaching coordination roles, course development and teaching international classrooms. S/he is able to stimulate student learning and to maximize student participation in our system of small-scale problem based learning (PBL).
S/he is a scholar with a thorough background in social and/or political philosophy/theory, has a firm understanding of the history of the field, and possesses extensive expertise in academic research and teaching in the field of democracy, citizenship, political culture, and/or modalities of power. Important markers of this quality in research and leadership include publications of original work in highly regarded journals; monographs and edited volumes published with prestigious (university) presses; acquisition of funding from national, European and other research funding agencies both as individual and as team player; proven skills in talent-scouting and in supervision and coaching of students, PhD students and post-docs.
The selected candidate should be ready to fulfil an important managerial role in the faculty, therefore having strong leadership qualities is deemed crucial. S/he is expected to be a genuine coach as well as a team player.

What we have to offer
The successful candidate will be appointed as a full professor for 5-years. Under the condition of a positive assessment the position will be extended in a tenure contract.

Remuneration will be according to standard salary levels, depending on education and relevant work experience. This implies a minimum of € 5.059,-- and a maximum of € 7.766,-- gross per month for a full-time appointment of 38 hours per week.
