The Faculty of Social and Behavioral Sciences invites applications for a



W2/W3-Professor in Communication Science with a focus on empirical methods



starting as soon as possible.



The applicant must have a proven track record in the spectrum of methods 
of all relevant sub disciplines of empirical communication science,

reception studies; the applicant should be able to represent these 
strengths excellently in both teaching and research.



The applicant’s research should focus on the application and development 
of quantitative and qualitative methods for the empirical analysis of 
networked interpersonal and mass communication. Experience in the 
application of methods from empirical research projects on the 
interactions among society, the political system, and the media system 
is desirable. The applicant is expected to contribute to the conception 
and realization of a faculty Center of Methods, and should have a track 
record in acquiring third-party funding.



The task profile of the professorship includes education in methods and 
statistics in the BA and MA programs of the department.

Requirements for the position are pedagogical aptitude (proven by course 
evaluations), PhD, and Habilitation (or equivalent scientific achievements).



Friedrich Schiller University encourages the hiring of female 
professors. Applications of women are particularly welcome.

Handicapped applicants of equal qualification will be given preference.

If this is a candidate’s first professorship, employment will begin with 
a temporary contract; exceptions to this are possible (ThürHG §79(2)).
