The position sits within a strong and supportive subject environment in the department of humanities and society, where research is carried out in several directions, especially onomastics, grammar, and linguistic history.

Teaching is tied to the bachelor’s programme Strategic Swedish – digital communication, forensics and marketing, and may also extend to other courses and programmes.
