The University of Vienna is internationally renowned for its excellence in teaching and research, and counts more than 7,500 academics from all disciplines.

At the Faculty of Law at the University of Vienna seeks to appoint a
Tenure-Track Professor in the field of Criminology
Successful applicants are expected to cover and represent the full breadth of criminology in their research and teaching. Excellent empirical methodological skills in both quantitative and qualitative areas are required. An interdisciplinary focus with a strong anchoring in a social science reference discipline (e.g. sociology of law, legal psychology) is particularly desirable. Successful applicants will have a doctorate in law and a good knowledge of Austrian criminal law and criminal procedure law, as evidenced by their teaching and publication activities in this area, in order to continue the traditionally close interdisciplinary cooperation within the institute. A network with the practice of the Austrian security and justice sector is an advantage.
As the largest university in Austria, the University of Vienna offers a broad framework for research and teaching. Cooperation with and knowledge transfer between scientists, e.g. at the Faculty of Social Sciences and the Faculty of Psychology at the University of Vienna, enable interdisciplinary criminological research and teaching of outstanding importance for science and practice. The University of Vienna thus offers an excellent research environment for interdisciplinary criminological research. The Vienna School of Criminology is characterised by the close connection between normative criminal law, empirical criminology and scientific criminology. In the sense of a comprehensive criminology, this enables the treatment of criminal law from a normative and empirical perspective, which is unique in Austria. The research environment is also characterised by the possibility of cooperation with the interdisciplinary research units ALES-Austrian Center for Law Enforcement Sciences (Research Unit for Police and Justice Sciences), the Research Unit for Legal Psychology and the Centre for Economic and Financial Criminal Law.
