We will take into account your current career stage when evaluating your application. You have a well thought-out vision of and the capability to provide high-quality, research-based academic education and possess excellent didactic skills. Teaching experience is an asset. If you have evaluations of previous teaching assignments at your disposal, please add them to your application. Finally, you possess demonstrable organisational, social, professional and leadership skills, as well as the collegiality and flexibility necessary to join an existing team. Experience in legal practice is not required, but can be considered an asset. Experience with research supervision is not required, but can also be considered an asset. The official administrative and teaching language of KU Leuven is Dutch.

It has a strong inter- and multidisciplinary focus and strives for international excellence. To this end, the Faculty and the Research Unit actively collaborate with research partners in Belgium and abroad.The Faculty of Law and Criminology of the Humanities and Social Sciences Group of KU Leuven has a vacancy for a full-time position as a research professor (BOFZAP) in Public International Law at the Research Unit for International and European Law. This position is funded by the Special Research Fund (BOFZAP), established by the Flemish Government. A research professorship at KU Leuven offers excellent researchers the opportunity to build a research group, with limited teaching responsibilities in the first 10 years. After 10 years, the position will be transformed into a regular academic professorship, and depending on the Research Unit/Faculty, teaching responsibilities may increase. The Faculty of Law and Criminology has a strong national and international reputation for teaching, research and service in the area of public international law. It pursues leadership in each of these spheres at the national, European and international levels. In doing so, the Faculty wishes to distinguish itself through the academic nature of its work and its awareness of the major societal role of this research area. The technicality of the legal domain is therefore to be transcended through originality in research, attention to values, awareness of the interaction of legal rules in a multi-layered legal order, and intra- and interdisciplinarity. The vacancy is hosted by the Research Unit for International and European Law which is internationally renowned for the quality of its scientific research output, as well as for the high level of education it provides (in English and/or in Dutch) to students from Belgium, the European Union as well as from around the globe. The activities of the Research Unit (RU) are organised around 3 axes: public international law (e.g. international legal theory, and generalist approaches - e.g. nature and sources -, international dispute settlement, law of international organisations, international economic law and international humanitarian law), private international law (e.g. international commercial litigation, strategic and public interest litigation) and European law (with a focus on institutional matters, e.g. EU constitutional law, judicial protection, fundamental rights, law of external relations). Our staff is composed of 4 full-time professors, 2 post-doctoral researchers and 9 full-time researchers. We also benefit from the involvement of numerous part-time professors, experts and assistants, and are very successful in attracting external research funding. Many members of the RU are affiliated to the inter-disciplinary Leuven Centre for Global Governance Studies and work closely together on research projects within the Centre.We offer full-time employment in an intellectually stimulating environment.Depending on your application file and qualifications you will be appointed at one of the ranks of senior academic staff. In Belgium, each of these ranks are positions with ius promovendi that offer a prospect of promotion to full professor without your needing to apply for a new vacancy.As a senior academic staff member, in the course of your career you will have the possibility to make use of periods of sabbatical leave, during which you are exempted from regular duties. The purpose of these sabbaticals is to allow you to focus (even more) on your professional development or to recharge your academic batteries, without loss of salary.KU Leuven is well equipped to welcome foreign professors and their families and where possible offers practical support in the areas of immigration, housing, child care, learning Dutch, career coaching for the candidate’s partner, ...To facilitate scientific onboarding and accelerate research in the first phase a starting grant of circa 110.000,00 euros is offered to new professors if they meet the eligibility criteria determined by KU Leuven.
