Vacancy: Fully tenured Professor of Humanisation of Organisations

Vacancy 13-07

 

The University of Humanistic Studies (UvH) in Utrecht conducts scientific research and develops and provides study programmes in the field of humanistics. Humanistics is a multi-disciplinary applied science that embraces the principles of a humanist philosophy of life, viewing the meaning of life and humanization as its central concepts. These underlying principles characterise the UvH’s study programmes (550 students/60 PhD’s) in the field of spiritual care, philosophical and moral education and other counselling or advisory professions in educational institutions, businesses, policy-making bodies and other organisations. These divergent professional fields for humanists are viewed in conjunction with each other while education, research and valorisation at the UvH are approached with an emphasis on their mutual connections. 

 

The theme group Critical Organisation and Intervention studies at the UvH has a job opening for a:
