IFRO is responsible for running several courses on Research Integrity or Research Conduct of Research (RCR) for PhD students, postdocs and senior staff at both the Faculty of Science and the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences. Teaching is done by a team comprising both IFRO staff and external collaborators. The associate professor will be responsible for the day-to-day coordination of the department’s RCR teaching. This includes coordination with the relevant PhD schools and other administrative units, as well as coordination within the teacher group. The associate professor will also be responsible for ensuring that the RCR-teaching is continuously updated according to developments in research, policy, and practice and that all teachers are up to date. Finally, the associate professor is expected to teach academic integrity, philosophy of science and to a lesser extent also ethics to bachelor students from a broad range of disciplines within the natural sciences.

Duties include the applicant’s own research, development of the field, assessment tasks, grant applications, and research management such as supervision and training of research fellows and other staff. The successful applicant must also teach, supervise, prepare and participate in examinations, and fulfill other tasks requested by the Department. Assessment of applicants will primarily consider their level of documented, original scientific production at an international level, including contributions to developments in their field, as well as their documented teaching qualifications.
