| Job description |
The Institute of Philosophy at the University of Bern (Switzerland) is offering a two-year postdoctoral position within the project Worldly Indeterminacy, which is funded by an SNSF Consolidator grant. The project's working hypothesis is that there are facts about the world that remain indeterminate no matter how much we know. The goal is to develop a metaphysical theory of this indeterminacy and to investigate its consequences for other philosophical areas. The core project group includes two PhD students, a postdoctoral researcher (the person hired for this position), and the principal investigator (Prof. Dr. Vera Hoffmann-Kolss, University of Bern). The deadline for applications is February 20, 2026. More information about the position and the application process is available under the link provided below. |
