Jakob Waag Villadsen is a guest lecturer at the University of Copenhagen, focusing on developmental psychology and pedagogy. His current research revolves around his Ph.D. project titled "Institutional Life Course; Children's Development in Day Care", which investigates the impact of national curriculum reforms on children's development and subjectivity within day care institutions.

He has extensive experience in child day care and has been actively involved in organizational participation at academic conferences and peer review processes in relevant journals. Additionally, he teaches courses in Community Psychology and Developmental Psychology at both bachelor and master levels, and holds a collaborative role in the European Doctoral Network in Sociocultural Psychology.
