Dear Vision Science Members,

Lund University are currently seeking a Professor and Director of Lund Social Sciences Methods Centre.

Duties and areas of responsibility
We are seeking a research leader who will actively and with great commitment take on the role as director of the Methods Center. The director will have the overall responsibility for the Methods Center and, with innovative ideas and in close cooperation with the center's coordinators and the faculty's researchers, will develop the activities in a creative spirit that directly enriches specific research environments/subjects and the Faculty of Social Sciences as a whole. The director will also collaborate with relevant international, national and local actors and ensure that the Methods Center functions as a hub for researchers throughout Lund University. Additionally, the director is expected to actively seek research funding that will benefit the Methods Center, lead and participate in research projects, and engage in the international research debate. These duties require a high level of physical presence.

The position will be in one of the following departments: Center for Sustainability Studies (LUCSUS), Department of Cultural Geography and Economic Geography, Department of Psychology, Department of Sociology of Law, School of Social Work and Social Policy, Department of Sociology or Department of Political Science. Applicants are asked to clearly indicate which department they are interested in being placed at and justify their choice of subject affiliation.

The directorship comprises 50 percent of a full-time position. During the first five years, the remaining time will be dedicated to research activities within the home department. This includes a commitment to securing external research funding for others, actively participating in postgraduate training, and engaging in other departmental research activities.
