Assistant or Associate Professorship in Digital Methods

Aarhus University - Department of History and Classical Studies

Location: Aarhus - Denmark
Salary: Not Specified
Hours: Full Time
Contract Type: Permanent
Placed On: 6th October 2025
Closes: 2nd November 2025

The Faculty of Arts invites applications for an assistant professorship or an associate professor in digital methods, with a focus on both research and teaching in the humanities. The successful applicant will be based at the School of Culture and Society, Aarhus University, Department of Philosophy and History of Ideas, Jens Christian Skous Vej 7, 8000 Aarhus C. The position is a full time (37h/w) permanent position with a starting date 1st January 2026 or as soon as possible thereafter.

This position is one of two positions which will be located in two different departments at the School of Culture and Society. One in the Department of History and Classical Studies, and one in the Department of Philosophy and History of Ideas.  In addition, the positions will be affiliated with the Center for Humanities Computing (CHC). CHC provides specialised support to researchers at Arts working with digital data—regardless of their technical background.

The positions are intended to strengthen the Faculty’s ongoing academic development, in which digital methods, including generative artificial intelligence tools, are increasingly being integrated into the disciplines as a natural part of both research and education.

A key task will be the professional development of researchers and teaching staff, enabling them to drive the integration of digital methods within their respective fields. Competencies in teaching academic colleagues and contributing to didactic development are therefore essential. In addition the assistant professorship or associate professor must work in continuation of the projects https://digitalcurriculum.au.dk/.

  • The assistant or associate professor is expected to publish also on digital development within specific disciplines.
  • The assistant or associate professor is expected to develop frameworks for the digitalization of educations in collaboration with the academic environment
  • The assistant or associate professor is expected to participate in the development of new educations with a specific attention to the digital challenges
  • The assistant or associate professor is expected to organize annual workshops on digital opportunities in teaching across the Faculty

Applicants should be able to document experience in applying digital methods within their field and possess the competencies necessary to support the didactic development of teaching in digital methods, integrated into academic environments and degree programmes across Arts.

Qualifications for the assistant professor position

  • A PhD degree or equivalent in History of ideas, Philosophy or related research areas.
