Mid Sweden University is advertising a doctoral position in pedagogy with a strong focus on higher education and lifelong learning in working life . The project is situated within the university’s pedagogical research environment, where education and research are connected to teacher education and the behavioral sciences programme. The position is linked to a broader research profile in pedagogy organized around four research groups: Didactics, Inclusion and Diversity (DIM) , Higher Education and E-Learning (HEEL) , Critical Perspectives in Educational Research (KUF) , and Leadership in Education Administration and Development (LEAD) . The advertised project centers on pedagogical processes such as organizational development, competence development, and learning in working life, with particular interest in a higher-education pedagogical perspective on lifelong learning and how current societal development and higher education can support the pedagogy of working life.

The position may later include a limited amount of teaching and administrative work as part of the doctoral education. The appointment is based in Sundsvall and is intended to lead to a doctoral degree through four years of full-time study.
