The research activities will be integrated with the educational programmes in Civil Engineering, where the selected candidate will contribute to teaching and supervision in the areas of structural engineering.

The successful candidate is expected to carry out internationally competitive research activities, to publish in high level peer-reviewed academic journals as well as engage in other forms and levels of research dissemination, form industrial collaborations, and to play an active role in securing external funding, including both EU and Danish sources.

A commitment to excellence in teaching at both undergraduate and graduate level is expected including participation in teaching and the development of new courses and in supervision of BSc, MSc and PhD students as required.

The position as associate professor holds responsibility, but also comes with influence and opportunity to develop and deliver research and education to the highest international level.

Primary research area

The experimental research is predominantly carried out in the SDU Structures laboratory which is equipped with state-of-the-art testing and data acquisition equipment for structural testing. Within timber structures, the candidate may carry out research related to numerical modelling and analysis of wood and timber structures, experimental and analytical work on wood-based structures including connections.

Qualifications
Applicants must hold a PhD degree or equivalent qualifications within the field of Civil and Architectural Engineering. A strong track record of research and scientific publications, as well as a demonstrated ability to attract research funding, are required for prospective associate professors. Research leadership and project management experience and excellent communication skills are considered essential.

The successful candidate should have a well-documented teaching record in the relevant field(s). Fluency in English is required, and knowledge of Danish is advantageous but not mandatory.

The education and teaching portfolio at SDU CAE primarily covers the Bachelor of Engineering Program in Civil Engineering and the Bachelor and Master of Science in Engineering Program in Civil Engineering, however, there are also opportunities to participate in educational activities at other educational programs at the faculty.
