Rosalind Franklin Fellowships 2010-2011

To promote the participation of women the University of Groningen invites applications from female academics to fill 20 tenure track positions now available in its prestigious Rosalind Franklin Fellowship programme. The programme aims to raise the presence of women at the highest levels of the institution.
 
At the Faculty of Behavioural and Social Sciences, two Rosalind Franklin Fellowships are available. Research and education in the Faculty of Behavioural and Social Sciences is carried out in the fields of Psychology, Pedagogy, Educational Sciences and Sociology (see Faculty website, http://www.rug.nl/gmw/). 
 
Succesful candidates will set up their own research project(s) in the area of their choice, including funds to support a PhD project, and will be expected to establish their own research programme and to attract external funding. They will also contribute to the teaching programmes within the faculty.
 

Following a favorable evaluation after (maximally) six years, the fellow will be awarded tenure and promotion to the rank of Associate Professor; typically, after another three years a further promotion to “Adjunct” Professor, i.e. associate professor with ius promovendi can follow. Finally, after a further three years (on average) another evaluation will take place and if this proves favorable, promotion to Full Professor will follow. The Rosalind Franklin Fellowship is linked to the Tenure Track system of the Faculty of Behavioural and Social Sciences.
