Jens E. Kjeldsen is Professor of rhetoric and visual communication at Department of Information Science and Media Studies, University of Bergen (Norway), where he has worked as deputy head of department and board member for The Faculty of Social Sciences. He has also worked as Professor of rhetoric at Södertörn University (Stockholm, Sweden) and been a visiting scholar at University of California, Berkeley, and Northwestern University (Evanston/Chicago)

He is the initiator and immediate past president of the organization Rhetoric Society of Europe (RSE), and the co-founder and long time chief editor of the journal Rhetorica Scandinavica

His main interest is visual rhetoric and argumentation, political speechmaking and speechwriting, rhetoric in public communication. He also works on rhetorical audience studies and rhetorical theory, especially in relation to media and to the changing of rhetorical situations and circumstances in an increasingly fragmented, complex and mediated world.

He is presently working on projects dealing with the rhetoric of the immigration debate; political television debates; everyday rhetoric and rhetorical working through; and credibility, trust, and ethos in a hybrid media ecology. He is leader of the working package "Media analysis" in the project Pandemic rhetoric, which studies the rhetoric, risk communication and constitution of credibility and trust in the COVID-19 pandemic.

Kjeldsen is also project leader of the project Derekrit, studying the teaching of speechmaking and rhetorical citizenship in public high schools.
