Duties

The position includes research and teaching in the subject area. The assistant professor is expected to apply for research funding and establish new collaborations within and outside of KTH. Furthermore, the assistant professor is expected to teach at undergraduate, advanced, and doctoral levels, which also includes the development of existing and new courses. The assistant professor is also expected to contribute to the supervision of students and doctoral candidates in the subject area. Some administrative tasks are also included. The assistant professor is expected to be able to teach in Swedish within four years. If necessary, a language plan will be established as support in connection with the appointment.

The assistant professor will be given opportunity to develop their independence as a researcher and gain accreditation that may allow them to take other teaching positions with higher eligibility requirements (see Chapter 4, Section 12 a of the Swedish Higher Education Ordinance). Following application, the assistant professor can apply for promotion to associate professor in accordance with Chapter 4, Section 12c of the Higher Education Ordinance.
