Society is changing at a rapid pace, due to increased collection, processing, and analysis of data. Are you eager to advance our understanding of these changes in society? Are you excited about transfering your knowledge of Information Management to the next generation of IM specialists?

You will also be expected to supervise bachelor or master’s students who are writing their thesis. In the special case that you have excellent programming skills, you may be asked to perform complex programming tasks, in setting up lab sessions or assisting fellow researchers in data collection and analysis.
