Tue Jun 20 08:20:42 GMT 2017


For vacancy Full Professorship for Science Communication - see below
++++++

We have unfortunately lost our longtime Lecturer for "Communication Management". As you can see from the call >> http://bit.ly/SCR-17-6 << we are looking for a colleague with at least five years of work experience (preferably ten years or more) in managing a science / innovation communication department in industry and/or the academy.

The module, which is to be taught at least in winter 2017 and summer 2018, is officially called "Corporate Communication Management, Governance and Controlling". You will be expected to address the increasingly wide spectrum of management tasks, from internal communication and knowledge repositories to planning and evaluating exhibitions and events, as well as corporate publishing, branding, and fund-raising, controlling and project evaluation.

The course comprises of 60 mainly seminaristic contact units à 45 minutes, which may be taught in blocks.

Rhine-Waal is Germany's first fully international university. All of the degree programmes in our faculty are in English. 80% of our students are international. This diversity also guides our approach in research and teaching: being comparative about the different systems of science, media, policy. Regarding the lectureship in question, the module is expected to juxtapose the conditions and practises in different systems and cultural settings around the world. By completing the module, students shall also be prepared for staffing and outsourcing issues, challenges with leadership and group dynamics in communication departments.

Applications by 23rd June 2017 to our faculty management (see the call).

Our campus is located in the heart of Europe, right on the border between The Netherlands and Germany, half-way between Amsterdam and Cologne, or Brussels and Munster, at the foot of Cleves castle.

You may also be interested in our calls for a Full Professorship (http://bit.ly/SCR-17-7) in Science Communication, and a part-time Research Associate (http://bit.ly/SCR-17-5e) position in project management. Two more vacancies will go online by the end of the month, both full-time positions, one is a mixture of applied research and practise, the other one about communication management.

It should be okay to send a digital application in advance if this is necessary to meet the deadline, but please clarify with HR first, (Nicole.Horn /at/ hsrw.eu).

There are five days left to apply for the second Science Communication Full Professorship in our university, i.e. my future colleague to join me in coordinating our research and teaching activities.

This is a lifetime-tenure Full Professorship with a comparatively high amount of teaching to start off (18 hours), hence a position for researchers who are also dedicated in working directly with students. We believe in research-led teaching and have the privilege to work with our students in small groups on a brand new campus.

Rhine-Waal is Germany's first fully international university. All of the degree programmes in our faculty are in English. 80% of our students are international. For the time being, we have the great privilege to offer our courses without asking for tuition-fees, which enables young people from meanwhile more than a hundred different countries to study with us. This diversity also guides our approach in research and teaching: being comparative regarding the different systems of science, media, policy, etc.

I am aware that people on this mailing list have already applied last year for this position, and I am most grateful for the exciting exchange we had with so many committed colleagues from almost all continents. Allow me to explain what seems to have been the challenge in finding the right fit for this partiposition. The future professor is expected to have both the usual standing in social science scholarship and substantial practical experience in science communication.

If you have questions about the official call >> http://bit.ly/SCR-17-7 << please don't hesitate to ask.

Applications by 26th June 2017 to our HR department. It should be okay to send a digital application in advance if this is necessary to meet the deadline, but please clarify with HR first, (Nicole.Horn /at/ hsrw.eu).

Our campus is located in the heart of Europe, right on the border between The Netherlands and Germany, half-way between Amsterdam and Cologne, or Brussels and Munster, at the foot of Cleves castle.
