Working at the university

Working at the university

Innovation, multiculturalism and internationalisation. This is what Leiden University stands for. Since 1575, the university has made prominent contributions to the prosperity, well-being, and culture of society. All this in a climate where talent can be developed without ideological, cultural or religious restrictions. We offer a personal approach in a close-knit environment.


Policy on applications

When evaluating applications, in the event of two equally suitable candidates, preference will be given to internal candidates, women, those with a work disability and ethnic minorities. This policy reflects Leiden University's aim of achieving a balanced structure of the workforce.
