The SDU Metaverse Lab is seeking a new colleague to join our team. Our focus is on the interface of technology and people, working across domains to create experiences and technologies that enable people to shape and engage with the future. We seek a new colleague to support the strengths of the lab across all forms of interactive technologies, while unlocking new opportunities to provide societal benefit through cutting-edge technical research.
1 The SDU Metaverse Lab
The Metaverse Lab is an interdisciplinary research, academic, and impact-generating organisation. Unconstrained by disciplines, the Metaverse Lab sees engineers, scientists, designers, artists, and practitioners focusing on creating experiences and technologies that enable people to shape and engage with the future. In the Metaverse Lab, staff and students work together with companies and organisations on projects across disciplines in an environment designed for collaboration and technology transfer. Our research is motivated by a single aim: delivering science and technology for the benefit of society at scale. Within the broad interdisciplinary space of the Metaverse Lab, our work converges on three interconnected themes.
In Human-AI Interaction, we develop AI systems that work with and alongside people - from multi-agent logistics and swarm control in hospital settings to adaptive AI decision-making, affective computing for emotion-aware support systems, and AI-driven game environments including game twins: lightweight interactive counterparts of real-world processes designed to explain complex ideas, lower barriers to entry, and build awareness and resilience.
In Digital and Technical Literacy, we investigate how children, students, and educators can be better prepared for the digital transformation of the labour market - through STEM education programmes, teaching materials for primary and secondary schools, teacher training in emerging technologies, and AI-powered educational tools.
In Health and Wellbeing Technology, we build computational methods that improve how healthcare is delivered and experienced - including AI systems for capturing and structuring clinical conversations, causal AI for medical interventions, and game-based approaches to therapeutics and diagnostics.
Across all three themes, we work closely with industry, healthcare, defence, and public-sector partners to ensure our research translates into real-world impact.
Our faculty leads the Game Development and Learning Technologies Bachelor's degree, as well as the Interactive Technologies and Games MSc programme, working with students, visitors, and our many partner companies and organizations. Our students form the crucial front-end engineering link between back-end engineering and the actual users of information systems, with deep technical expertise and design skills who can ensure systems are useful and impactful - and ready for the future. Our alumni have gone on to share their unique skills and competencies across the Creative Industries and beyond.
The degree comprises a 3-year BSc plus a joint MSc programme with the Software Engineering section at the same institute. At its heart, the programme is a technical software engineering degree, but with a heavy emphasis on front-end design and thinking. The degree covers a diverse range of situations with an emphasis on game design and game development, including AI fundamentals and advanced techniques, VR/XR, web programming, hardware and robotics, learning technologies, and advanced interaction technologies. We place a heavy emphasis on semester projects in teams and integrate these projects directly into our courses. The degree is taught primarily in English. Some courses can be taught in Danish if the lecturer speaks Danish and there are no native-English speaking students in the class in question.

En af de vigtigste støtteindsatser for studerende flytter nu til SDU – og vi søger lederen, der skal være med til at få den til at lykkes.
Fra januar 2027 overtager SDU ansvaret for specialpædagogisk støtte (SPS) til studerende med psykologiske og neurologiske funktionsnedsættelser. Det er en stor og meningsfuld opgave, som hidtil har været løst af en ekstern leverandør, men som nu forankres på universitetet.
Derfor søger vi en leder med faglig indsigt, stærke samarbejdsevner og lyst til at skabe noget nyt. Du bliver ansvarlig for at opbygge det nye område sammen med cirka 14 kommende medarbejdere. Derudover får du ledelsen af et veletableret team på 9 medarbejdere, der arbejder med SPS til studerende med dysleksi og dyskalkuli, står for SU og SPS-administrationen på SDU samt yder støtte til eliteidrætsudøvere.
Det betyder, at du får en sjælden mulighed for både at bygge op og drive videre. Du skal være med til at forme fagligheden, skabe de organisatoriske rammer, rekruttere nye medarbejdere og sikre en god overgang, så de studerende oplever en stærk og sammenhængende støtteindsats fra første dag.
Vi synes selv, det er et usædvanligt spændende lederjob. Ikke kun fordi opgaven er ny, men fordi den gør en reel forskel for studerende, som har brug for ekstra støtte for at kunne lykkes med deres uddannelse.
Og heldigvis står du ikke alene. Du bliver en del af en arbejdsplads med engagerede medarbejdere, dygtige lederkolleger og stærke samarbejdspartnere, som alle er optaget af at skabe de bedst mulige rammer for de studerende.
Om stillingen
Som leder af SPS, SU & Elite får du ansvaret for et område, der kombinerer myndighedsopgaver, vejledning, støtteindsatser og udvikling af tilbud til studerende med særlige behov.
Du bliver leder for både eksisterende og nye medarbejdere og får ansvar for at sikre høj kvalitet i opgaveløsningen, sammenhæng på tværs af indsatserne og fortsat udvikling af området.
Rollen kræver, at du kan bevæge dig ubesværet mellem personaleledelse, faglig ledelse, drift og strategisk udvikling. Du skal kunne skabe retning og ro i en organisation under forandring, samtidig med at du har blik for de studerendes behov, den faglige udvikling på området og de organisatoriske sammenhænge, som området indgår i.

De første måneder i jobbet
Du træder ind i en unik etableringsfase, hvor du får stor indflydelse på både organisering, faglighed og kultur i det nye område. En stor del af dit fokus i den første tid bliver at skabe fundamentet for den nye SPS-indsats og sikre en tryg og professionel overgang, når opgaven overgår til universitetet.
Dine vigtigste opgaver bliver
At rekruttere og sammensætte det kommende SPS-team. Samtalerne afholdes i uge 41 og 43, og rekrutteringen bliver en central opgave umiddelbart efter din tiltrædelse.
At bidrage til den faglige, organisatoriske og ledelsesmæssige etablering af det nye område, så medarbejderne er klar til at løfte opgaven fra januar 2027.
At skabe fælles retning og sammenhæng mellem de eksisterende SPS-, SU- og Elite-opgaver og den nye indsats for studerende med psykologiske og neurologiske funktionsnedsættelser.
At sikre en god opstart for både nye og eksisterende medarbejdere med fokus på trivsel, kvalitet og fælles faglighed.
At bidrage til den fortsatte udvikling af SPS-området, herunder kommende udbuds- og udviklingsopgaver.
Du kommer ikke til at stå alene med opgaven. En erfaren chefkonsulent og en projektmedarbejder arbejder allerede med forberedelserne og bliver vigtige samarbejdspartnere i etableringen af området, ligesom du vil have et tæt samarbejde med chefen for Studenterservice hele vejen.
Hvad vi leder efter
Du er sandsynligvis den rette kandidat, hvis du trives med at bygge nyt op, skabe retning for dygtige medarbejdere og samtidig holde fokus på, at den daglige drift fungerer fra første dag.
Erfaring fra SPS-området er ikke et krav, men vi forventer, at du har indsigt i rådgivning, vejledning, støtteindsatser eller andre beslægtede velfærds- og uddannelsesområder.
Vi forestiller os, at du
Har erfaring med personaleledelse og at skabe retning, engagement og følgeskab.
Har en kandidatgrad.
Kan bygge bro mellem faglighed, drift og udvikling.
Har blik for organisatoriske sammenhænge, for mennesker, kvalitet, økonomi og ressourcestyring og kan sikre en bæredygtig drift af området.
Er stærk i samarbejdet med kolleger, ledere og eksterne samarbejdspartnere.
Kan prioritere og skabe fremdrift, også når der er mange opgaver og interesser i spil.
Formår at sætte medarbejdernes kompetencer i spil og skabe et stærkt fællesskab omkring opgaven.
Arbejder med ordentlighed, tillid og anerkendelse som grundlæggende ledelsesværdier.
Ser potentialet i AI og nye digitale muligheder og arbejder aktivt for, at teknologien anvendes værdiskabende til gavn for både medarbejdere og studerende.
Du kan forvente
Et lederjob med både mening, ansvar og mulighed for at sætte et tydeligt aftryk.
Du får mulighed for at stå i spidsen for et område, der gør en konkret forskel for studerende, som møder barrierer på vejen gennem uddannelsen, og som har brug for de rette rammer for at kunne lykkes. Samtidig bliver du en del af en organisation i udvikling, hvor stærke relationer og samarbejde på tværs er afgørende for, at vi lykkes.
Du kommer til at arbejde sammen med fagligt stærke og engagerede medarbejdere, som brænder for deres opgaver og for de studerende. Du får gode muligheder for sparring med både lederkolleger og medarbejdere, og du bliver en del af en ledergruppe, der vægter tillid, fælles ansvar og udvikling af ledelse.
Derudover får du mulighed for at præge udviklingen af et nyt fagområde på SDU – fra rekruttering og opbygning af team til udvikling af faglige tilgange, samarbejder og tilbud til universitetets studerende.
Kort sagt får du mulighed for at stå i spidsen for et område, hvor god ledelse kan mærkes direkte af de mennesker, indsatsen er sat i verden for.
Leder i SDU Uddannelse
Du bliver en del af ledergruppen i SDU Uddannelse. Vi tror på, at gode løsninger skabes i fællesskab, og vi forventer derfor, at vores ledere bidrager aktivt til både egne og fælles opgaver.

Unconstrained by disciplines, the Metaverse Lab sees engineers, scientists, designers, artists, and practitioners focusing on creating experiences and technologies that enable people to shape and engage with the future. In the Metaverse Lab, staff and students work together with companies and organisations on projects across disciplines in an environment designed for collaboration and technology transfer. Our research is motivated by a single aim: delivering science and technology for the benefit of society at scale. Within the broad interdisciplinary space of the Metaverse Lab, our work converges on three interconnected themes.
In Human-AI Interaction, we develop AI systems that work with and alongside people - from multi-agent logistics and swarm control in hospital settings to adaptive AI decision-making, affective computing for emotion-aware support systems, and AI-driven game environments including game twins: lightweight interactive counterparts of real-world processes designed to explain complex ideas, lower barriers to entry, and build awareness and resilience.
In Digital and Technical Literacy, we investigate how children, students, and educators can be better prepared for the digital transformation of the labour market - through STEM education programmes, teaching materials for primary and secondary schools, teacher training in emerging technologies, and AI-powered educational tools.
In Health and Wellbeing Technology, we build computational methods that improve how healthcare is delivered and experienced - including AI systems for capturing and structuring clinical conversations, causal AI for medical interventions, and game-based approaches to therapeutics and diagnostics.
Across all three themes, we work closely with industry, healthcare, defence, and public-sector partners to ensure our research translates into real-world impact.
Our faculty leads the Game Development and Learning Technologies Bachelor's degree, as well as the Interactive Technologies and Games MSc programme, working with students, visitors, and our many partner companies and organizations. Our students form the crucial front-end engineering link between back-end engineering and the actual users of information systems, with deep technical expertise and design skills who can ensure systems are useful and impactful - and ready for the future. Our alumni have gone on to share their unique skills and competencies across the Creative Industries and beyond.
The degree comprises a 3-year BSc plus a joint MSc programme with the Software Engineering section at the same institute. At its heart, the programme is a technical software engineering degree, but with a heavy emphasis on front-end design and thinking. The degree covers a diverse range of situations with an emphasis on game design and game development, including AI fundamentals and advanced techniques, VR/XR, web programming, hardware and robotics, learning technologies, and advanced interaction technologies. We place a heavy emphasis on semester projects in teams and integrate these projects directly into our courses. The degree is taught primarily in English. Some courses can be taught in Danish if the lecturer speaks Danish and there are no native-English speaking students in the class in question.
