1. Junior Professor
Clinical Neuropsychology
The Institut für Kognitionsforschung, Carl von Ossietzky University of
Oldenburg, Faculty 5 (Philosophy, Psychology, Sports Science), invites
applications for a junior professor position (assistant level) for
clinical neuropsychology .
Positions are to be filled in 2002, final decisions on budgetary and
employment regulations provided.
Candidates will initially be employed according to the federal tariff
system (BAT); the salary will correspond to "BAT Ib". The position will
be limited to three years. After positive evaluation it is possible to
extend the contract up to six years. Status as civil servants can be
provided if personal qualifications and legislative conditions comply
with requirements.
Qualifications for application include a graduate university degree as
well as excellent scientific competences usually documented by an
outstanding doctoral degree. The doctorate should be achieved no longer
than five years ago.
Teaching and research expertise is expected in the areas of clinical
neuropsychology and its applications, behavioral physiology, and
neuropsychiatry / psychopathology.
Research should focus on topics in neurocognition. Neuronal bases of
behavioral and control are also desirable research topics. Research
should also be related to modern neuroimaging techniques (functional
magnet resonance tomography) in cooperation with local medical
institutions.
We expect the successful applicant to participate in the Deutsche
Forschungsgesellschaft - Sonderforschungsbereich "Neuronale Grundlagen
kognitiver Prozesse (Neurokognition)" as well as in the European
Graduate School "Neurosensory sciences".
The Carl von Ossietzky University Oldenburg pursues the target that at
least 40 % of the "Junior Professor" faculty positions should be filled
with women. The university of Oldenburg is an equal-opportunity employer
that sseks to increase the percentage of female faculty members. Women
qualified for the positions are therefore especially encouraged to
apply. Applicants with disabilities will be preferentially considered in
cases of equal qualifications.
The Universities of Oldenburg and Bremen made an agreement on
cooperation. Therefore an active participation in this cooperation is
anticipated.
Please send a letter of interest with a CV, reports, diploma, and
information on previous teaching posts, publication list – publications
only if requested – until 04.01.2002 at the latest and mark the
envelope: Dekan des Fachbereiches 5 der Carl von Ossietzky Universität
Oldenburg, 26111 Oldenburg.
Equal qualification taken for granted, the University encourages women
to submit their applications.
This holds equally for the severely handicapped.
2. The Department of Biology, Geo- and Environmental Sciences has
established a
Junior Professor for Neurogenetics
The position will be filled in 2002, final decisions on budgetary and
employment regulations provided.
Candidates will initially be employed according to the federal tariff
system (BAT); the salary will correspond to "BAT Ib". The position will
be limited to three years. After positive evaluation it is possible to

"Neurocognition" (jointly with the University of Bremen), a Science
Centre of Neurosensory, and an associated European Graduate College.
Several cooperations exist with the Universities of Bremen and Groningen
(The Netherlands) and the "Hanse Institute for Advanced Study". The
candidate is expected to engage with his/her research activities
(related to e.g. developmental processes, regulation of behavior or
neurosensory processes) in these cooperations.
Teaching will encompass Neurogenetics in an extent typically requested
from a Junior Professor.
The Carl von Ossietzky University of Oldenburg is an equal
opportunity/affirmative action employer seeking to increase the
proportion of female faculty members. Qualified women are especially
