Professor of Strategy (W3)

The successful candidate will extend the existing curriculum by offering courses that are in line with the School’s teaching priorities. The professorship will be actively involved in all degree programs offered by the School of Business and Economics,

We are looking for outstanding candidates with an excellent portfolio of research projects as well as a convincing track record of publications in leading international, peer-reviewed journals as well as excellent didactic skills, including the ability to teach in English. We expect the candidate to actively seek collaborations within the School of Business and Economics as well as other areas of the University of Tübingen.

 

Required qualifications include a PhD or equivalent degree as well as postdoctoral qualifications and teaching experience equivalent to the requirements of a full professorship.

 

The University of Tübingen is committed to equal opportunity, diversity and inclusion. Female scientists, in particular, are explicitly invited to apply, as are applicants from outside Germany.

 

Applications from equally qualified candidates with disabilities will be given preference.
