Its award-winning study model is organized into the Leuphana College, the Leuphana Graduate School and the Leuphana Professional School. Leuphana University invites applications for the following full professorship: Sustainability, Knowledge and Society (W2/W3) For this position, we are seeking an excellent professor with an outstanding internationally visible research and teaching profile (W3) or a committed scholar with international experience in research and teaching, who demonstrates the potential for excellent scientific contributions (W2) to join our School of Sustainability, a vibrant community of scholars committed to advancing our understanding of sustainability transformations and contributing to them through rigorous and socially relevant research. You explore within your research the field of sustainability science with a deep epistemological and methodological understanding of knowledge systems and co-creation processes for sustainable development. Your research profile in sustainable development leads you to implementing a future-oriented innovative research program that advances our understanding of knowledge production/ co-creation/systems and sustainability transformations. Your research contributes to sustainability science by advancing our field’s problem- and solution-oriented understanding of how knowledge is produced, used, and contested in sustainability transformations, how knowledge systems change vis-a-vis new technological developments (e.g., artificial intelligence, algorithmization) or socio-cultural shifts (e.g., science scepticism, epistemic pluralism), and how innovative research approaches can effectively integrate and utilize diverse knowledges. For an appointment at the W3 level your research is characterized by significant contributions to the field, that substantially shape scientific debates. Your expertise in the above-mentioned areas is demonstrated by a competitive track record of peer-reviewed publications in high-quality international journals (relative to opportunity). For a W3-professorship, we expect a continuous track record of excellent peer-reviewed publications in high-quality international journals. Furthermore, you have experience in successfully acquiring third party funding (relative to opportunity). For the W3 position, this experience includes leading roles in highly competitive funding programs (e.g. DFG, ERC) and/or collaborative research projects (e.g. EU-Horizon). Moreover, you indicate a highly promising publication strategy and pipeline and convincingly articulate a clear vision for how you plan to expand and institutionalize your research portfolio at Leuphana by making use of available competitive national and international funding opportunities.  In addition, you have a vibrant – for a W3 professorship an already established excellent – research and practice network; relevant experience in research projects and strive to develop impactful practice collaborations. Thus, you have experience in navigating the science-society nexus and are capable of forging collaborations across diverse disciplinary and epistemological perspectives; for a W3 appointment this includes substantive leadership experience. As your professorship is situated at the core of our School’s mission and vision, you are expected to drive collaborations with faculty members from diverse backgrounds (sciences, humanities) and take a leading role in developing existing and new research agendas of the School of Sustainability. Your research and methodological approach contributes to the University’s overarching profile focus “Embracing Transformation”.
