Maastricht University Assistant Professor in European Political History since 1900

Europe’s past is characterised by continuous change, conflict, and cooperation — and understanding that past is essential to shaping its future. At Maastricht University, we explore how ideas of democracy, integration, and peace have evolved across borders and generations. As an Assistant Professor in European Political History since 1900, you’ll contribute to this shared mission: connecting historical insight with contemporary debates about Europe’s role in the world. Join a university that values curiosity, collaboration, and critical reflection in everything we do.
