Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor (EXPIRED)

The Institute of Philosophy of Mind and Cognition (IPMC) aims to educate a new generation of philosophers who specialize in cross-disciplinary research on mind and cognition. Specifically, our program is designed to train students to develop research topics in a way that integrates resources from the philosophy of mind, the philosophy of science, cognitive neuroscience, and the biomedical sciences. Please see our website (https://phil.nycu.edu.tw/en/about/) for some additional information about IPMC.

Faculty members in IPMC are responsible for research, teaching, and service. Successful applicants are required to have a Ph.D. by the time of appointment, a solid research record, and the ability to teach courses in English. Faculty members are responsible for teaching at least two courses per semester: one general education course for undergraduates, and one seminar for graduate students in our master’s degree program. Faculty members are also responsible for supervising graduate students. IPMC coordinates an undergraduate cross-disciplinary program called the Program for Philosophy, Intelligence, Brain, and Mind (https://phil.nycu.edu.tw/en/pibm/). Faculty members are also responsible for offering courses at this program.
