The Graduate School of International Studies (l’École supérieure d’études internationales – ESEI) at Université Laval, located in Québec City, Canada, is a centre of excellence in multidisciplinary research and teaching on international issues.

ESEI is currently seeking a faculty member whose research focuses on global inequalities and trade. The successful candidate will hold the Research Chair in Global Inequalities and Trade.

The competition is open to candidates from all disciplines relevant to this field. Applications from economics, law, geography, history, sociology, management, political science, and other relevant disciplines are particularly encouraged.

International trade structures power relations among developed countries, emerging economies, and least developed countries, as well as power dynamics among actors within societies. It has a direct impact on the lives of hundreds of millions of people and on their aspirations for a more equitable world. The Chair’s research will examine the reciprocal relationships between the governance of international economic and diplomatic relations, on the one hand, and inequalities, on the other, in the context of the reconfiguration of the emerging world order.

The Chair’s research may address, but is not limited to, the following issues: the role of financial institutions in addressing global economic inequalities (e.g., sovereign debt restructuring); the links between international aid, export-led growth, and human development; the role of sovereign wealth funds and the financialization of the economy in the unequal distribution of wealth and democratic backsliding; the impact of market opening and multinational corporations on local populations; and the preservation of an inclusive multilateral trading system.

In addition to its research activities, the Chair will develop an innovative teaching program based on simulations of negotiations and coordinated action within international organizations working in the fields of international development and trade (IMF, UNDP, WTO, etc.). These initiatives will raise students’ awareness of the importance of multilateral cooperation in reducing inequalities among countries.

A research advisor will support the Chairholder in developing, planning, and submitting research grant applications, while helping to maximize the Chair’s outreach and knowledge mobilization activities. Funding will also be available to support doctoral scholarships associated with the Chair.

The successful candidate will join the Graduate School of International Studies as a regular faculty member beginning June 1, 2027, and no later than September 1, 2027. The appointment may be made at any academic rank, in accordance with the Collective Agreement between Université Laval and the Syndicat des professeurs et professeures de l’Université Laval (SPUL).

Associate Professor or DTU Tenure Track Assistant Professor in Sustainable Travel Behaviour - DTU Management

DTU Management is looking for an Associate Professor or Tenure Track Assistant Professor in Sustainable Travel Behaviour to join our Transportation Science Division.

In this position, you will contribute to research and teaching within travel behaviour and sustainable mobility and become part of an internationally recognized research environment with strong links to policymakers, public authorities, and industry.

The position offers a unique platform to conduct pioneering research in Sustainable Travel Behaviour, connected to DTU’s broader ecosystem of technological knowledge and innovation within the transportation sector.

The Transportation Division is an internationally recognized research environment with strong expertise in transport and mobility. Our interdisciplinary team brings together researchers from fields such as engineering, economics, psychology, data science, computer science, mathematics, and statistics.

We deliver ground-breaking fundamental research as well as research-based insights and tools for policymakers and industry. We collaborate closely with research communities in Denmark and abroad, and with Danish authorities. This includes a large ongoing contract with the Ministry of Transport, under which we provide policy support to solve the great challenges in the transport sector. This includes responsibility for the national travel survey.

Human behaviour and its underlying drivers are embedded throughout our research on transport systems and mobility. Our research creates a foundation for policy support related to key challenges in the sector, such as the green transition, mobility for all user groups, congestion and pressured land use both in large cities and rural settings; equity, safety, and risk; and derived negative externalities of transport.

The overarching focus of the position is understanding human mobility and sustainable travel behaviour when planning transportation systems. This should also be seen in a broader context understanding how urban and rural surroundings influence travel behaviour, and based upon this formulating policies and regulations for more sustainable mobility.

What we offer
We offer an international research environment, with a collegial, team-oriented environment in an elite university based in Greater Copenhagen. We have good opportunities for collaboration, supervision and co-supervision of graduate students and attractive teaching conditions.

Denmark offers abundant funding opportunities for leading edge research from its many private and public research foundations in addition to the EU funding schemes. To support the obtaining of funding, DTU and the department provide highly specialized and individual funding support and guidance depending on your needs and where you are in your career.

Furthermore, Denmark is one of the countries in the world with the highest degree of digitalization, and hence researchers have access to unique longitudinal datasets on households, companies, transport behaviour, land use, etc. DTU has a close collaboration with public authorities, which secures both impacts of research and access to surveys, experimental and register data.

The position is full-time and based at DTU Lyngby campus, just north of Copenhagen. Copenhagen is renowned around the world for its relaxed atmosphere, fantastic restaurants, festivities and high quality of life, being number one on the 2025 Global City quality of life index.

Responsibilities and qualifications
We seek an Associate Professor or Tenure Track Assistant Professor who can advance research and practice on travel behaviour, deepening our understanding of behaviour, preferences, and choices, and their underlying drivers. You have a strong track record in research at an international level.

Over the years, we expect you to develop academic leadership, attract external funding, teach undergraduate and graduate students, strengthen our research-based advice, and contribute to a fruitful environment based on the position. Particular emphasis will be on public sector support, scientific advice, and societal impact on the transport domain.

You will bring the following:

• A PhD in a relevant topic and discipline related to travel behaviour, e.g. from Transportation Science, Social Data Science, Economics, Psychology, Geography or Urban Planning, with a quantitative evidence-oriented profile
• Experience of application areas within the transport domain, possibly related to land use, and a strong publications record in these areas
• Experience with, or a strong interest in, scientific advice and public sector consultancy in the transport domain, along with strong skills in sector collaboration
• A solid national and international network within and beyond academia
• An ambition to push boundaries and define future research agendas that address societal challenges

As a candidate, you should have a high potential for creative and independent research, willingness to collaborate and interact with other researchers, the ability to teach courses at different levels, to engage in scientific advice and to disseminate research in seminars, conferences and in the classroom, as well as to the wider public. You will also be responsible for the teaching of student courses.

DTU employs two working languages: Danish and English. You are expected to be fluent in at least one of these languages, and with time are expected to master both.

As a formal qualification you must hold a PhD degree (or equivalent). If you are applying for the associate professor position you should also have academic qualifications equivalent to those obtained by holding an assistant professorship and documented didactic/pedagogic training.

You will be assessed against the responsibilities and qualifications stated above and the following general criteria:

• Experience and quality of teaching
• Research experience
• Research vision and potential
• International impact and experience
• Societal impact
• Innovativeness, including commercialization and collaboration with industry
• Leadership, collaboration, and interdisciplinary skills
• Communication skills
