In the assessment of pedagogical skills, broad competence that covers several of the various areas of global public health, but particularly quantitative or qualitative epidemiological methods, qualitative evaluation methods, and practical experience of implementation of research to practice (for example projects where the research results have been implemented in public health policies or practical guidelines, etc.) is particularly meritorious. The assessment also includes demonstrated good ability to meet students with different subject and professional backgrounds. Experience and skill in academic teaching in the subject must be well documented. The assessment of pedagogical skills refers to planning, ability to work based on given frameworks, implementation and evaluation of teaching, as well as supervision, examination, course development and course or program responsibility in areas relevant to the employment.
In the assessment of scientific skills, special emphasis will be placed on merits in global public health with relevance to areas covered in courses within our masters programs in global health and public health. Relevant areas include also fields that can build research and education collaborations to the departments strengths such as psychological health and/or young adults health.
It is a strong merit to have been granted research means in competition within relevant area but also from relevant funding agencies e.g national and international funding boards and trusts.
