Job description

The Department of Philosophy at Stockholm University is Sweden’s largest philosophy department. The department is home to a very active, friendly, and cooperative community of internationally well-connected researchers, and hosting a large variety of conferences, workshops, colloquia, seminars, and guest researchers every year.  Like most major philosophy departments in Sweden, the Stockholm department is divided into two subjects — Practical and Theoretical Philosophy — both of which feature many researchers prominent in their fields. Theoretical Philosophy encompasses philosophy of language, as well as  logic, epistemology, metaphysics, philosophy of mind, philosophy of science, and history of philosophy. The department has a particularly strong profile in philosophy of language, with a tradition of combining formal and informal methods.

We are now looking to further strengthen our profile in philosophy of language and are inviting applications for a Senior Lecturer (Associate Professor, permanent position). The successful candidate has a strong research record in philosophy of language and ideally combines the use of formal methods with a keen interest in general philosophical questions relating to language. 

Main responsibilities
The holder shall conduct research and teaching in the theoretical philosophy with a particular focus on the philosophy of language. The employee shall actively work to contribute to external funding of research at the department. Administrative tasks may also be included in the duties. Employment as a lecturer means entitlement to later apply for promotion to a professor
