Assistant professor in Vivo-mimetic Technology

7 days ago


Stockholm, Stockholm, Sweden Karlstad University Full time

Since its founding in 1827, KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm has grown to become one of Europe's leading technical and engineering universities.

Assistant professor in Vivo-mimetic Technology

The subject area is biophysics with a focus on in vivo-mimetic technology and includes the development and use of complex model systems that enable the study of biological functions at the multicellular, cellular, and molecular levels under conditions resembling the body's tissues or organs.

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.

Eligibility

An individual who has completed a doctorate or equivalent scientific competence is qualified for appointment as an assistant professor. Candidates who met those qualifications a maximum of seven years before the deadline for applying for the appointment as an assistant professor has expired should be prioritized. Other candidates may also be considered if there are special reasons. Special reasons refer to absence due to illness, parental leave, or other similar circumstances.

Assessment criteria

The assessment criteria for appointment as an assistant professor at KTH are stated in KTH's appointments procedure section 1.3, and apply in relation to the employment profile laid down.

Of highest importance is that the applicant has:

  • Scientific expertise demonstrated through scientific publications, conference attendance, attendance of research cooperation and other undertakings in the scientific community such as assignments as a reviewer or expert.
  • Potential to qualify for a higher teaching post. This includes the potential for independent development as a researcher and teacher within the subject field in question and the ability to establish, review and develop the research area in question.

Of second highest importance is that the applicant has:

  • Experience from a postdoctoral visit in a research environment other than the university at which the applicant defended their doctoral thesis. In application-oriented areas, experience from research and development work within the industry or other organizations is considered to correspond to a traditional postdoc visit to another university.
  • An interest in and understanding of pedagogical development within the subject field in question.
  • Interest in and insights concerning leadership in academia, collaboration with the outside community, and awareness of diversity and equal opportunity issues with a particular focus on gender equality.

It is also important that the applicant has:

  • Administrative expertise.
Application

Your application should follow KTH's CV template for employment of teachers. It is the responsibility of the applicant to ensure that the application is complete according to the requirements in the ad and CV template.

Your complete application must be received at KTH no later than the last day of application, midnight CET/CEST (Central European Time/Central European Summer Time).

Log into KTH recruitment system in order to apply to this position.

Other

Time limitation: The appointment is for an indefinite term, but no more than six years, and may be extended if, due to the teacher's absence due to sick leave, parental leave or other special grounds, more time is required to reach the objectives of the appointment. However, the total appointment period may not exceed eight years. The appointment is part of the Tenure Track system at KTH and the assistant professor may apply for promotion to tenured associate professor.

Striving towards gender equality, diversity and equal conditions is both a question of quality for KTH and a given part of our values.
