Do you want to work with us? We're always looking for new talent. Here you can see all the University's vacancies and how to apply. You can also create a subscription so you don't miss new announcements. We look forward to receiving your application.

How to apply for vacancies

Simplify the applications process with a user account

It is quick to create a user account. When you have an account, you no longer need to enter your personal details every time you want to submit an application. The account also offers an overview of your applications and any messages we have sent you via the system. The messages are also sent to your email address, so you do not need to monitor your account.

If you do not already have an account, you have two options:

  1. Create an account with the same email address as the one you used in the application. When you have done this, you can edit your application when you log into the account. This is the recommended option.
  2. Click 'Apply' in the vacancy notice and fill in the same email address as the one used in your application, as well as all the other required details. Your application will automatically be updated with this information.

You can also create an account at a later date. As long as you provide the same email address as the one used in the application, any previous information will appear in your account.

Updating your application

You can update your application for as long as the application period is open. To make changes to an attached document, first update the document on your computer, then upload the new document. 

Keep your contact details up to date

In order to enable us to get in touch with you, it is important that you keep your contact details up to date. If you do not have an account, email any changes to jobb@mau.se. If you have an account, log in and update your personal information. If your email address has changed, log in with the old address and register the new one.

Subscribe and be notified

You can also subscribe and be notified when a new job ad is posted. Please note that you can only have one subscription per email address.

You can unsubscribe at any time via a link in the subscription emails. After 12 months, you will receive an email offering you to renew your subscription, otherwise your subscription will be automatically deleted.
