The JKU takes scholarly achievements and accomplishments into consideration in terms of an individual’s professional background and opportunities. In doing so, the university acknowledges that academic/scholarly performance can include varying life stages (such as reduced employment, or a career disruption on account of caregiving responsibilities, childcare responsibilities, etc.). The university therefore evaluates qualifications with regard to equal opportunity, taking biographic factors, such as academic age, into account.

The Johannes Kepler University wishes to increase the proportion of academic female faculty and, for this reason, especially welcomes and encourages applications by qualified women. If applicants are equally qualified, a woman will be given preference for this position. The university welcomes applications from qualified applicants with disabilities. These applications will be given special consideration.

Prospective applicants are asked to submit their application in adherence to the criteria stated in the job profile including all requested documentation (CV, application form etc.), in electronic form via e-mail to the Rector of the Johannes Kepler University Linz: application@jku.at by October 25, 2023.
