MOBILE - Centre of Excellence for Global Mobility Law - is looking for a talented and committed student to assist our researchers and to support the centre's daily operational tasks.
MOBILE is one of the Danish National Research Foundation's research centres. We are engaged in research on global mobility law, understood as the legal regulation of migration, transnational workers, tourism, etc. with a particular focus on regional regimes of free movement in different parts of the world, the practical significance of mobility rules, and how mobility rules change over time or as a result of external events. The research work in MOBILE is mainly interdisciplinary, and it is therefore an advantage to have knowledge of or interest in law, political science, sociology, data science or similar. The work at MOBILE takes place in a highly international environment with researchers from many different countries.

In addition, practical tasks related to the organisation of meetings, conferences, etc. and assistance to MOBILE's visiting researchers.
Applicants with experience or knowledge of the centre's research area or competencies within some of the above-mentioned tasks should clearly state this in the application.
