Application procedure

As Utrecht University, we want to be a home for everyone. We value staff with diverse backgrounds, perspectives and identities, including cultural, religious or ethnic background, gender, sexual orientation, disability or age. We strive to create a safe and inclusive environment in which everyone can flourish and contribute.

To apply, please send the following documents via the ‘apply now’ button:

• your motivation letter;
• a brief vision/plans regarding your own research and teaching for the next five years (max. 3 A4 pages);
• your curriculum vitae including your teaching experience and a list of publications;
• the email addresses of two referees.

We aim for a quick selection procedure after the application deadline.

In the second stage of the selection procedure, the shortlisted candidates will be asked to defend their research plans and teaching vision in an oral presentation and discussion with the committee.

Presenting a short lecture to students and staff may also be included in the procedures. We hope to have these selection procedures take place in June or early July. The intended starting date is 1 September 2025 or as soon as possible thereafter.

Note that international candidates that need a visa/work permit for the Netherlands require at least four months processing time after selection and acceptance. This will be arranged with help of the International Service Desk (ISD) of our university. Finding appropriate housing in or near Utrecht is your own responsibility, but the ISD may be able to advise you therewith. Unfortunately, we must warn that it is a tight market at the moment. In case of general questions about working and living in The Netherlands, please consult the Dutch Mobility Portal.
