we have a position announced for an Assistant-Professorship in Usability at BUW
(Junior-Professor - fixed term for 3+3 years, sadly not tenure track)
https://www.uni-weimar.de/de/universitaet/aktuell/stellenausschreibungen/m0116-e/
In teaching, the position is core to the HCI Master program, where they teach Usability Engineering, Quantiative Methods, and related topics on Usability. Besides of 1 lecture-style class per semester for the person on this position, most of the teaching is project-based, with larger, research-oriented group projects (which often result in publications). Our other program is Media-Informatics (a specialized Computer-Science program), thus we also have technologically skilled students who take our classes.
We are looking for people who bring some psychology knowledge, know how to run and analyse experiments, and complement our current faculty in interesting ways.
Teaching in the Masters is in English, and while our Bachelor program is German, we do already teach some classes in English, thus international applicants would also be feasible.
Weimar is a small-to-medium sized city in Germany, very relaxed to live, with nice countryside, low living costs, only about 3 hours from Berlin or Frankfurt, and (due to its touristy attractions) has cultural activities that far surpasses its size, with several festivals in summer as well as a vibrant grassroots arts-scene. Last but not least, Bauhaus-Universität is always a bit different, given its history and background - e.g. we have a big final year show for the whole University across all faculties.
Please see the link above for details. Please forward this job ad to interested people!
(please note - the process for hiring in Germany is awfully slow compared to the UK, e.g. interviews are expected to happen in July, thus do expect a long wait… )
