Copenhagen Business School invites applications for a vacant Associate Professorship in Danish and EU competition and public procurement law at the Department of Business Humanities and Law (BHL).

Core research themes of BHL include entrepreneurship, business ethics, leadership, governance, culture, learning, business history, and law from commercial and societal perspectives. It is the ambition of BHL to tackle the big questions shaping business and society today. Through high-quality research and teaching grounded in the humanities, social sciences, and law, BHL researchers explore what it means to be human in a world driven by enterprise and uncertainty.

The Department is organized with three academic units closely related to aspects of our educational offerings and our research. The two offered positions are anchored in the Law Unit (CBS LAW).

Founded in the international and national legal framework for businesses in a globalised world, CBS LAW’s research focuses on business law from a societal and commercial perspective. Consequently, the research concentrates on the content of and interplay between international law, EU law and national law.
