Job description |
The position is offered, in the first instance, for a 2 year period, which can be extended by 2 more years and then by one more year (for a total of 5 years). During this period, the successful candidate is expected to complete a PhD dissertation under the supervision of Prof. Paolo Crivelli. Candidates should *not* already have a PhD at the moment of application. The assistant will contribute to the teaching in French at BA level, in particular by running a class where students write essays or produce other written worked to be marked. This will amount to 2 hours of teaching per week with correction of written work by the students. The successful applicant is also expected to take care of communications between stedents and staff and to contribute to some administrative tasks in the Department. Knowledge of French will be an important component in the evaluation of applications, though applications where the candidate does not yet know the language but commits him- or herself to learning it will be given due consideration. During the first year, the salary will be of CHF 46’247 per year. By the fifth year, it will amount to CHF 78'528 per year. |
