Post-Doc Scholarships within the Jena Graduate School Human Behaviour in Social and Economic Change (GSBC) (Jena, Germany)

Outstanding candidates with a background in Applied Ethics, Economics, Psychology or Sociology are invited to apply for 4 Post-Doc Scholarships within the Jena Graduate School Human Behaviour in Social and Economic Change (GSBC).

The Graduate School is a recently established university institution located at the Friedrich-Schiller-University Jena. It is a joint initiative of scholars of the School of Social and Behavioural Sciences, the School of Economics and Business Administration, and the Max Planck Institute of Economics. Currently, the major contributing disciplines are Applied Ethics, Economics, Psychology and Sociology. Their common research topic within the GSBC is the analysis of human behaviour with an emphasis on social and economic change. The principal research focus of the GSBC is interdisciplinary. For further information, especially on the research programme, please visit www.gsbc.uni-jena.de.

We expect candidates to interact with each other and with post-docs in the different research programmes as well as with PhD students, to bridge the disciplines’ borders, to advise interdisciplinary research, and to pursue their own research projects.

Applicants are required to hold a superior PhD in one of the above mentioned disciplines or an equivalent degree in a related discipline. Candidates should have either already published in leading academic journals or show interest and potential to do so. Knowledge of German would be useful but is not required. All scholars are expected to choose Jena as their place of residence.

Scholarships start on January 1st, 2009 and include funding for up to three years (2+1). Deadline for applications is 30 September 2008. Candidates should e-mail their CV, transcripts of degrees, a list of publications, the most important publication or a substantial research text (as pdf), an outline of their future research programme, the application form and two letters of reference from academic teachers to: kristina.von-rhein@uni-jena.de. The application form is available on www.gsbc.uni-jena.de. The letters of reference should be directly sent to us by the recommenders.
