[AISWorld] Vacancies for International Tenure Track Assistant Professorships at Copenhagen Business School

[Michael Wessel]

Copenhagen Business School invites applications for one or more vacant Tenure Track Assistant Professorships in Digitalization at the Department of Digitalization.

It is the ambition of the Department to bring together scholars who share a common interest in the study of digitalization in context, specifically focusing on co-creating knowledge with enduring consequences through the study of interrelationships and processes connecting people, data and digital technology. The core research areas of the department evolve around the disciplines and topics of Information Systems and Data Science. Faculty often engage with emergent topics and phenomena where digital technologies entangle with new individual, organizational and/or societal processes and practices. These foci are reflected in the faculty-driven research themes that create a platform for scholars to discuss and collaborate on research, teaching and funding activities. Faculty engages in cross-disciplinary and cross-institutional research in the national network DIREC.
