We are looking for an engaged and ambitious assistant professor in Environmental Law. Are you a promising legal scholar with an interest in interdisciplinary research in the law related to our living environment? Then please apply!
We are looking for people who are interested in exploring how law can contribute to transformative changes to our living environment, with a view to create a more sustaining and sustainable future. A background in European Union law is particularly relevant for the work of the group.
You will develop, supervise and carry out global-level high-quality research in collaboration with your own international network, as well as with colleagues at the Law Group and Wageningen University. You will publish regularly in leading international academic journals. Over the medium term, you will be supported to develop individual research grant applications to the Dutch
Innovational Research Incentives Scheme and the
European Research Council.
The Law Group combines scholars with expertise on environmental law, food law, human rights law, EU law, WTO law, intellectual property rights law, and consumer law. You will be encouraged to collaborate with colleagues across these themes in the development of legal research linked to the living environment, as described in our
Chair Plan 2021-2025. You are a personable, social colleague willing to balance your personal research interests with those of the group.
You will contribute to strongly internationally oriented teaching programmes at Wageningen University. You will be expected to participate in existing and future courses taught by the Law Group in environmental law in MSc and BSc programmes at the University.
The successful candidate will proceed through the
tenure track system at Wageningen University. You will be encouraged to reach the level of Professor in your field by establishing an internationally visible independent research line with a societal impact.
