About Us

The University of Copenhagen is a leading international research university with strong and internationally recognized research areas in clinical veterinary sciences. We are seeking an associate professor to join our Department of Veterinary Clinical Sciences to contribute to our mission of advancing knowledge and promoting innovation in animal health and disease.

We are a dynamic and interdisciplinary department that covers a broad range of research areas, from basic science to translational research. Our goal is to set a new standard for cross-disciplinary research, education, and innovation within animal health and disease, making us one of the best public workplaces in Denmark.

The University Hospital for Companion Animals is based in Frederiksberg, Copenhagen, and receives a diverse range of patients. Our state-of-the-art facilities include 64-slices CT, 1.5T MRI, ultrasonography, radiography, ICU, and 24-hour emergency cover. Our surgical facilities are equipped for osteosynthesis, arthroscopy, and advanced soft tissue procedures, with electrosurgery and tissue-sealing equipment.

We have a specialized clinical referral service in soft tissue, oncologic, orthopaedic, and spinal surgery, oromaxillofacial surgery, physiotherapy, and rehabilitation. Our caseloads typically consist of 25-30 patients per week, including initial visits, check-ups, and surgical procedures.
