We are looking for 1-2 professors of media and communication studies for permanent positions at the School of Humanities, Education and Social Sciences.

The subject area for the positions is media and communication studies.

Background
The School of Humanities, Education and Social Sciences offers education at the bachelor's and master's levels in a wide range of subjects and fields, both as freestanding courses and as study programmes. The school is also host to prominent research and doctoral programmes. Collaboration across subjects is characteristic for the school, as is the pursuit of continuous development of both education and research.

At Örebro University, media and communication studies integrates aspects of both social sciences and the humanities and has extensive research activities and a strong international profile. Currently, its academic staff include two professors, one professor emeritus, thirteen senior lecturers (of which four have been appointed docent), one postdoctoral research fellow, one researcher, three lecturers, five doctoral students and three teaching assistants.

Two bachelor's programmes are offered in the subject: Media, Communication and PR, and Film Studies. In addition, the range of courses offered includes a number of freestanding national and international courses. At the master's level, a one-year international master's programme in strategic communication is offered.

Duties and responsibilities
As a rule, a professor at Örebro University spends the bulk of their working hours on research. They are also expected to work actively to bring in external research grants to the subject, take overall responsibility for its research activities, and contribute to developments within the subject field internationally. A professor is expected to be involved at all three levels of higher education at the university and to communicate and collaborate around their own and the department's research activities.

A professor is moreover expected, within the scope of their employment, to make themselves available for executive and administrative assignments at the university.

Qualifications
A person who has demonstrated both research and teaching expertise is qualified for employment as a professor.

A general eligibility criterion for permanent teaching positions at Örebro University is that the applicant has completed courses on teaching and learning in higher education corresponding to 10 weeks. For appointment as professor, the applicant must also have completed courses on doctoral supervision. Knowledge and skills equivalent to such courses may also be assessed to establish whether these provide eligibility. An applicant who at the time of appointment does not meet the criteria for courses on teaching and learning in higher education or doctoral supervision must complete the required courses no later than within two years of taking up the position.
