Visiting professors are expected to maintain their affiliation with their home institution throughout the appointment. The level of engagement, duration and duties will be agreed jointly between the visiting professor, the host department and Chalmers. Financial arrangements will be tailored to the specific circumstances of each appointment.

Please note that the position concerns a Visiting Professor and not a regular professorship with permanent employment.

Qualifications

According to Chalmers’ Appointment Regulation for teaching and research staff, a Visiting Professor must:

• Hold a full professorship, or an equivalent appointment at the highest academic rank, at a reputable university.
• Be able to contribute to both research and education at Chalmers, including supervision and mentoring of students and early‑career researchers.
• Be prepared to take an active role in collaboration with external partners and in the academic life of the hosting department.

Who we invite

This is an open call aimed at established researchers who have an outstanding record of scientific achievement and are internationally recognised as an academic leader within their field and who wish to spend a period of time in Gothenburg.

Only a limited number of appointments will be made through this highly selective programme. Candidates will be assessed not only on their academic achievements and international standing, but also on their potential to contribute to the development of Chalmers’ academic environments and international position.
