Job Description

DTU Management invites applications for full professorships in Science and Technology Studies at DTU’s Department of Technology, Management and Economics. The department is striving to be a key player in DTU’s strategic aim to foster “Technology for People”, i.e. to put human needs and societal challenges and aspirations at the centre of technological innovation and implementation.
The successful applicant(s) will be based within the Division of Technology and Business Studies in the Human-Centred Innovation section. 
Science and Technology Studies is an interdisciplinary scholarly field that makes inquiry into how science and technology are developed, adopted, resisted, and translated in practice. In the Human-Centred Innovation section we attend empirically to the processes through which human needs and aspirations are sought to be put at the centre of technological innovation and implementation. We explore how knowledge about human experience is made to better understand and intervene in the societal transformations brought about by science and technology. 
A pivotal idea in Science and Technology Studies is that we need to understand science and technology as entanglements of social, technical, environmental, and political elements and also as part of larger infrastructural arrangements in order to grasp the impact of science and technology in society. The new faculty in the section will contribute to further deepening the cross-over of fieldwork methods and engineering expertise in the section. We are particularly invested in the role of experience of the digital society and in contributing to experimental quali- and quantitative research methods and methodologies to explore this area further with a solid foundation in Science and Technology Studies.
Responsibilities and qualifications
It is a priority to grow our research and teaching expertise within Science and Technology Studies and therefore it is important that you are interested in applying for external funding that allows for the area to grow. 
We are looking for a full professor, who can contribute to our current research and push the research frontier within one or more of the following research areas:

• Human-centred innovation with a special focus on diversity in engineering science and practice
• Computational anthropology including digital methods, data science, and ethnography
• Public controversies regarding for example AI, energy engineering, digital health, or public welfare 

The selected candidate(s) are expected to take a leading role in shaping a research agenda and teaching profile around one or more of the above areas.   
We offer an ambitious and collegial environment in which we strive to be at the frontier of research in our fields and grow talent and collaboration. 
DTU employs two working languages: Danish and English. You are expected to be fluent in at least one of these languages, and in time expected to master both.
Assessment Criteria 
You will be assessed against the responsibilities and qualifications stated above and the following general criteria:

• Documented experience and quality of teaching and curriculum development
• Research impact and experience, funding track record and research vision
• International impact and experience 
• Societal impact
• Innovativeness, including commercialization and collaboration with industry
• Leadership, collaboration, and interdisciplinary skills
• Communication skills

Salary and terms of employment
