Job description |
The University of Tartu announces an open call for a PhD position in Department of Philosophy on the topic of The Epistemology of Disagreement in Philosophy (supervisor Bryan Frances). The epistemology of disagreement literature has focussed on one-on-one peer cases, but most disagreements of interest are group ones over controversial issues that have experts on both sides. This situation leads to several intriguing questions:
The prospective candidates must show potential to make a significant contribution to philosophical debates related to such themes. The admitted PhD student will be enrolled in the Philosophy PhD programme. The nominal study period is 2018-2022, starting from September 2018. Research and studies will be funded by the programme DoRa Plus (European Regional Development Fund). Full time PhD student will be receiving a monthly grant of 660 euros during the nominal period of studies (4 years) and annual travel allowance (return travel between home and Tartu). In addition, there is a possibility of part-time employment as a junior research fellow (supported by the European Regional Development Fund Mobilitas Pluss project MOBTT45). Application deadline: June 1, 2018.
