The Department of Human Geography and Spatial Planning at Utrecht University is looking for a tenure-track Assistant Professor in Geography, Youth & Education. Our ambition with this Assistant Professorship (tenure track) is to further develop our teaching and research activities with respect to young people's geographies, capabilities, and potential. We link this to the context of growing up in this day and age, in an urbanised society in the Anthropocene, and to the role of (geography, place based, sustainability, futures) education in order to strengthen young people's capabilities. This includes research on how young people know, experience and value their current living environment and how (informal) geography education can enhance futures and sustainable thinking.
The research will take place in the Geography & Education section in close cooperation with the departmental Urban Futures research programme. It will connect to research in the department on urban youth, on teaching wicked problems and a futures dimension in education. Potentially, it will bridge the two strategic UU themes Dynamics of Youth and Pathways to Sustainability.
You will contribute to developing new research lines in collaboration with Prof. Tine Béneker (Chair Geography & Education). You will teach in several educational programmes ranging from our Bachelor in Human Geography & Spatial Planning to the Master level. We also expect you to contribute to the master programme Geography, Education, and Communication from the Graduate School of Teaching. Your input in courses will depend on your own expertise and fields of interest. Furthermore, you will supervise students working on their Bachelor and Master theses. An additional task is to contribute to the acquisition and execution of externally funded projects.
