The tenure track professorship is open to all theoretical and methodological approaches within communication research in the Social Sciences.

Communication science at the Faculty of Social Sciences of the University of Vienna deals with processes in public communication (via the media) and their infrastructural conditions, as well as their impact on society and individuals. With a strong social and communication science orientation, the focus is on the dynamics and development of organizational forms, types, content, effects and consequences of processes of mediatized social communication in the past and present.
