Within TU Delft's Faculty of Biotechnology, you play a pivotal role in shaping the future generation of scientists. Across the bachelor's programs Life Science & Technology and Molecular Science & Technology you engage in instructing over 300 students.
How do you achieve this? Principally by crafting and delivering practical education, spanning from fundamental laboratory training to advanced modules focused on microbiology, fermentation, downstream processing, and enzymatic conversion. Your role involves guiding students, evaluating their work, and assessing their reports.
You teach groups ranging from 20 to 50 students, supported by a dedicated team of lab assistants, technicians and PhD candidates. As a coordinator, you adeptly assemble teams for your classes and those of your faculty colleagues, overseeing recruitment, training, and guidance for the assistants. You report to Prof. Pascale Daran-Lapujade, the responsible instructor, who also supports you in shaping the lesson programs.
Additionally, you closely collaborate with teachers, researchers, and fellow coordinators, contributing innovative ideas to enhance teaching methods, learning objectives, and assessment practices. Beyond the bachelor programs, you actively participate in various educational committees alongside coordinators and teachers from other programs, elevating the overall organization and quality of our education.
In our labs and practical rooms, your focus is on continuous improvement, including the modernization of equipment as needed. You consistently explore avenues to optimize our laboratory infrastructure, procedures, and manuals to uphold standards of quality and safety.
You become part of an international team with approximately 50 colleagues from diverse countries, and educational backgrounds. You get support in advancing your teaching skills and obtain the Academic Basic Teaching Qualification (BKO).
Fixed-term contract: 1 jaar.

Together, we imagine, invent and create solutions using technology to have a positive impact on a global scale. That is why we invite you to apply. Your application will receive fair consideration.
Challenge. Change. Impact!
Innovation is crucial to fulfil the potential of industrial biotechnology for sustainable production of fuels, chemicals, materials, food and feed. Similarly, scientific and technological advances in environmental biotechnology are needed to enable novel approaches to water purification, and ‘waste-to-product’ processes, thus contributing to a circular economy. Increased fundamental knowledge encompassing enzymes, microorganisms and processes is essential for progress in this field. The Department of Biotechnology covers this research area and, based on new insights, selects, designs and tests new bio-based catalysts, micro-organisms, and processes.
