Dear colleagues,
the Department of Information at Hamburg University of Applied Sciences
(Germany) is hoping to promote the internationalisation of its study
programmes. We are therefore looking for a guest lecturer from abroad in
the field of Information Science. The interested person must have a
PhD, s/he must be member of a university abroad and have teaching
experiences at university level.
We plan for the prospective colleague to stay for at least 1 year and
desirably up to 2 years. S/he is expected to teach 2-3 modules in our
International Programme “Digital Information Services” which is taught
in English. Each module involves a class contact of 4 hours, i.e. the
teaching load will be about 10 hours a week. Terms at our university
roughly last from the middle of March until the middle of July and again
from the end of September until the beginning of February.
We would be happy to find a colleague who takes an interest in our
research focus “Knowledge Access und Accessibility” and who is committed
to the internationalisation of study programmes and student life.
The salary of the guest lecturer would amount to about 53.000 € /year or
more – depending on his or her status at the home university - plus
required social security contribution.
Your and our schedule:
* March 15th 2012: Deadline for your letter of interest (via email)

proposal for funding to the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) who
