Post-doctoral position in Smart Textiles Design

The University of Borås and the University of Skövde has received funds from the Västra Götaland region for strategic research collaboration. In the area of design, textiles and sustainable development, the project management team decided on the appointment of four postdocs.The objective of the initiative is to establish an open, dynamic, and durable ecosystem for research, innovation and education in Smart Textiles. The initiative builds on the domains of strength at the University of Borås (design and textile technology in smart textiles) and University of Skövde (advanced information systems and models) enabling both universities to maintain and to extend their leading role in those domains, thereby strengthening long term competitiveness and innovation potential of Swedish textile industry as well as novel application areas for textiles.

The postdoctoral position involves the establishment of new research initiatives and new collaborations in the strategic research theme Smart Textiles, set-up between University of Borås and University of Skövde. Due to the specific characteristics of the program the candidate is a true team-player, which can initiate new research initiatives. The post-docs appointed in the initiative are expected to develop activities at both universities and maximum 20% lecturing, within related research area, may be included.

To be considered for appointment, the applicant is required to hold a PhD in design, or a related area, which may not have completed more than three years prior to the end of the application period. There may, however, be special circumstances which may allow an applicant to be appointed for the position although he/she completed his/her PhD at an earlier date. The University's Working hours agreement for teaching staff applies to this position.

Candidates should have a demonstrated background in experimental design work within the area of smart textiles. Research in the Smart Textiles Design Lab (STDL www.stdl.se) is to a large extent basic artistic research with focus on expressional matters in a cross disciplinary context where textile design, interaction design and architecture interact. A strong background in artistic research is therefore qualifying for the position.The candidate should be able to demonstrate very good communication skills in English, both orally and in writing and should have documented good collaborative and communicative skills.

Since much work in the lab is done in smaller project groups experience of collaborative project work is also a qualifying merit. Experience as supervisor of PhD students is also a merit.
