Odense, Denmark Syddansk Universitet Full time

The Department of Mathematics and Computer Science (IMADA) at the University of Southern Denmark (SDU) invites applicants for one or more positions as Associate Professor in Discipline Based Science Education Research with a focus on University Computer Science Education Research, Mathematics Education Research or other Discipline based University Science Education Research.

IMADA is one of four departments at the Faculty of Science, SDU and located in Odense and is focused on research and teaching in Mathematics and Computer Science, as well as specializations in teaching these disciplines at primary, secondary and tertiary level. The Associate Professors will be part of the STEM Center for Research in Science Education and Science Communication (FNUG) and will be a member of the section on Learning Experience Design.

Thematic option 1: Computer Science Education Research
The department wishes to strengthen its research profile in University Science Education with a focus on Teaching Computer Science / Data Science. The applicant should expand and complement our current activities and a key part of the Associate Professorship is research and collaboration across institutions (other Danish universities). Thus, we are seeking an Associate Professor who will establish his or her own discipline-based education research group (DBER) while also playing a central role in cross-institutional collaboration, mentoring junior researchers, and contributing to developing our educational programmes and teaching activities in the areas of Computer Science Education, including educational technologies, visualization, interaction and experience design. 

The competence profile of the successful candidate bridges deep expertise in Computer Science Teaching as a research topic and strong interdisciplinary, leadership and collaborative skills. A documented track record of research project leadership will be an advantage, as well as a strong list of publications in peer-reviewed journals.
