Tilburg Young Academy

Tilburg Young Academy: Call for new members!

The Tilburg Young Academy (TYA) brings together early career academics from the University’s various Schools who aim to jointly contribute to making Tilburg University a place to flourish. The TYA was officially launched at the beginning of 2021 and is gradually extending the number of its members.

We need you! 

If you are interested in becoming a member of the TYA, we would like to ask you for a one-page CV (including those elements you find important and would like to mention) and a motivation letter. In this letter, we ask you to provide a general motivation for wanting to become an active member of our Young Academy and reflect on what would be the first thing you would like to implement or change if you would be the rector of our university?

Submit

Interviews with a selection of applicants will take place in April. There is no fixed number of new members, which will be appointed, applications are assessed on their merits. A successful candidate is to be appointed for an initial period of 2 years that can be extended with 2 more years at the member’s discretion. Membership of the TYA is open to anyone working at Tilburg University who successfully defended their PhD in the period between the start of 2015 and the end of 2023.
