Description:

Doctoral Positions at the Cluster of Excellence “The Politics of Inequality”
(f/m/d) (part-time 65%, pay scale TV-L E13, 1+3 years, starting date: October
2021)

The Cluster of Excellence “The Politics of Inequality: Perceptions,
Participation, Policies” (see https://www.exc.uni-konstanz.de/en/inequality/)
includes researchers from political science, sociology, economics,
linguistics, psychology, law and education studies. The Cluster’s researchers
investigate inequality in areas such as education, income and wealth, and
participation rights. They study how people perceive these inequalities, how
they lead to collective mobilization, and how political actors respond to
them.

The Cluster offers doctoral positions to highly motivated graduates with an
outstanding Master’s degree or equivalent, obtained in a field which is
relevant to the Cluster’s research agenda. PhD candidates will pursue their
doctoral research projects independently or as part of a project team in one
of the Cluster’s many and diverse research projects (see
inequality.uni.kn/research/projects/). Accepted applicants are initially
funded for one year. After the successful defence of their research proposal,
funding is extended for a further three years. Accepted applicants will be
enrolled in the newly established Graduate School of the Social and
Behavioural Sciences according to their main discipline and will specialise in
“Inequality”.

All applications should be submitted via the GSBS website. The deadline for
application is 15 April 2021. Candidates interested in applying for the
advertised positions should indicate their main discipline and their interest
in the Inequality Specialisation in both the statement of purpose and on the
electronic application form.

Full information on the necessary application documents and requirements, a
list of frequently asked questions, as well as the online application portal,
can be found at the application link provided below.

Questions regarding the application process not covered by the FAQ can be
directed to the GSBS office (GSBS.office at uni-konstanz.de). Specific questions
concerning the Cluster or the Inequality Specialisation may be directed to Dr
Amber Griffioen at the contact information provided below.

Pre-selected applicants for the advertised positions may be asked to submit a
3-4 page research proposal and invited to an interview in the first half of
May.

The University of Konstanz is committed to ensuring an environment that
promotes equal opportunity, diversity, and a healthy balance between
university and family life. As an equal opportunity employer, we strive to
increase the number of women and gender minorities working in the fields
advertised. For more, see:
