<https://seu.ub.edu/ofertaPublicaCategoriaPublic/listPublicacionsAmbCategoria?categoria.id=854740>_). 
The call was published in the Official Gazette of the Catalan Government 
(DOGC) on 2 February 2026, based on the Rector's decision of 22 January 
2026. The application period *_is from 3 February 2026 to 2 March

Among the positions offered, there are four tenure-eligible Lecturer 
(Professor lector) positions affiliated with the Departament de 
Filologia Hispànica, Teoria de la Literatura i Comunicació (Department 
of Hispanic Philology, Literary Theory and *Communication*), in the 
Faculty of Philology and Communication.

  * Journalism studies
  * Mass Communication
  * Organisational Communication
  * Social influence and Political Communication

These positions represent an excellent opportunity for outstanding 
early-career or mid-career academics to join a prestigious research 
university, contributing to teaching, research, and academic service in 
communication-related fields within this department.

Key details on the four positions (as referenced in official Serra 
Húnter offer listings and related UB/Gencat sources):

- They are all Professor lector tenure-eligible (Lector Serra Húnter) posts.

- Affiliated department: Filologia Hispànica, Teoria de la Literatura i 
Comunicació.

- Focus area: Communication (Comunicació), with potential 
sub-specializations such as organizational communication, media studies, 
or related fields in communication within the broader departmental scope 
(exact profiles and any specific descriptors are detailed in the call's 
annex and offer documentation).

General eligibility and requirements (as per the Serra Húnter Programme 
and UB call standards):

Media Studies, Journalism).

The selection follows transparent, merit-based international criteria
