Lund is an old attractive university town 10 minutes from Malmö and 40 minutes from Copenhagen.
We wish to fill the position no later than September 2018, although there is room for some flexibility. The position is a six year tenure-track and comes with a low teaching load and a competitive salary package. Decision on tenure is taken during the fifth year in accordance with Swedish legislation and University regulations.
