Amsterdam Zuid, Nederland Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam Voltijd

**Your function**:
Do you harbor a specific interest in innovation processes across disciplines? Are you eager to actively contribute your research towards fostering more inclusive innovation processes and educational advancements in this domain? If so, consider joining the Athena Institute at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam.

Your teaching focus will center on innovation processes, encompassing technological advancements (such as new drugs and artificial intelligence), care innovations (including prevention strategies and more efficient care processes), and system innovations (such as changes in financing and fostering new collaborations). These innovations play a significant role in our society, involving a diverse array of stakeholders such as scientists, policymakers, insurers, healthcare providers, industry professionals, and patients. In your teaching, you will explore how these stakeholders, from their respective perspectives, influence innovation processes and how an inter
- or transdisciplinary approach can shape these dynamics.

As part of your teaching duties, you will serve as a coordinator, lecturer, and potentially a workgroup leader in courses offered by the Athena Institute. Additionally, you will supervise master's students during their research internships.

Your research endeavors can delve into various aspects of inter
- and transdisciplinary research related to technological innovation processes. Moreover, you have the opportunity to explore innovations in education to enhance the delivery of this type of education. Depending on your interests, you may participate in ongoing research projects at Athena in both teaching and research capacities.

**Your profile**:

- Holds a PhD in a program related to the field of innovation management.
- Has a proven track record of teaching experience, including course development and coordination, specifically within the realm of innovation management.
- Demonstrates exceptional teaching skills and is regarded as an inspiring educator, as evidenced by student evaluations and other relevant metrics.
- Possesses a basic teaching qualification (BKO).
- Has a broad scientific and social network within the field of expertise.
- Exhibits the ability to establish and foster networks with both scientific institutions and social organizations.
- Has extensive experience collaborating in interdisciplinary teams, demonstrating openness, flexibility, adaptability, proactivity, and a proactive attitude.
- Possesses strong communication skills, enabling successful interaction with students, communities, users, stakeholders, and researchers from diverse disciplines.
- Maintains a robust and relevant publication track record appropriate to their career stage.
- Has excellent command of English, with a basic knowledge of Dutch being advantageous.
