You will also contribute to teaching duties and assist with the development of educational programs, ensuring the highest standards of academic excellence.
Requirements
To be considered for this position, you must hold a two-year master's degree (120 ECTS) or equivalent, with a proven track record of academic achievement and relevant research experience. Excellent knowledge of modern cultural history, proficiency in working with archival or corpus material, and strong communication skills are essential. Familiarity with Danish or another Scandinavian language is beneficial.
Working Conditions
