The research within the research group Horticultural production physiology is an important part of the research at the Department for Biosystems and Technology. Horticultural production is on the rise in Sweden and internationally. This is driven not least by consumers with increasing demand for vegetable food, preferably local, organically produced fruits and vegetables of high quality all year around. The research and teaching in the group is about conventional and organic production systems for field-, high tunnel- and greenhouse crops. The questions are related both to the established horticulture and to new cultures and new cultivation methods. In both research and teaching, collaboration with the industry is important, with the overall aim of contributing to the development of the horticultural industry towards increased production and sustainability. The teaching is conducted in English and Scandinavian languages at the undergraduate-, advanced- and research level.
Duties
The lecturer will conduct research and teach at all levels, as well as being a part of the development of the subject. There is a requirement for teaching in several different production systems and pedagogical development of the subject. The work also includes supervision of graduate-, master- and postgraduate students in horticultural science. The employment focus on horticultural production systems for food and different orientations towards vegetables, fruits, berries, etc. in field crops or in controlled climate are possible. During the first two years of employment, at least 50 % will be in undergraduate education.

The applicant shall
• have a completed doctorate in horticulture, biology or equivalent

Assessment criteria
Assessment for the appointment will be based on the degree to which the candidate possesses the skills to qualify for the position.
