The Bertrand Russell Research Centre and the Philosophy Department at McMaster University invite applications for a 1-year postdoctoral fellowship in the history and philosophy of psychology.
Philosophy of mind that engages research in cognitive psychology is flourishing. But approaching philosophical questions in an empirically-informed way is not a new thing on the intellectual stage. Empirical psychology gained a foothold as an independent scientific discipline around the turn of the 20th century. For reflection on mind conducted before that time, it can be intriguingly difficult to draw a clean line between the philosophical and the (natural) scientific.
We are building a new project at McMaster aimed at excavating philosophically-rich empirical work on mind from prior centuries. The project aims to address two key questions.
1. What can today’s philosophers of mind and cognitive scientists learn from forgotten, empirically-informed work from the past?
2. How did the rise of an independent science of mind influence the subsequent development of analytic philosophy?
Over the next several years, the Bertrand Russell Research Centre will host a series of workshops and conferences aimed at encouraging new research on these issues. The successful applicant to this position will support this project by conducting original research that addresses one or both of these questions, and by helping with conference organization (along with supporting publications that might flow from these events).
About us:
The Bertrand Russell Research Centre is devoted to the study of Russell and the history of analytic philosophy more generally. We produce the Collected Works of Bertrand Russell, The Collected Letters of Bertrand Russell, and the journal Russell. McMaster is home to the Bertrand Russell Archives, which holds by far the largest collection of Russelliana in the world, including manuscripts, notebooks, photographs, recordings, his personal library, and over 100,000 letters. Russell himself came to champion the philosophical relevance of empirical psychology, so research proposals that connect to Russell are especially welcomed.
Position Duties and Responsibilities:
The incumbent of this position will be responsible for producing research that addresses the project’s core questions, for assisting with grant writing, and for helping organize project-related events.
Salary range: $80,000-$90,000, including benefits and pension contributions.
Start date: September 2025
Location: Department of Philosophy, McMaster University
Supervisor:
• Alexander Klein (Canada Research Chair, Professor of Philosophy, Director of the Bertrand Russell Research Centre, McMaster University)
Requirements:
• The candidate must have a Ph.D. in philosophy, history and philosophy of science, cognitive psychology, or related areas.
• The candidate must have an independent research proposal compatible with the project outline.
How to Apply:
Interested applicants should submit the following:
(1) Two-page cover letter outlining a research project the applicant would like to pursue;
(2) Curriculum vitae (please indicate your PhD dissertation title, abstract, and supervisor); and
(3) The names and contact information of up to three references.
The files should be combined into a single PDF file. Please apply on-line.

Job Market Calendar
This institution has indicated that the position advertised will not follow the APA's recommended job market calendar. An explanation, if provided, appears below.
A recently acquired grant will fund these positions so our hiring timeline is not the usual one.
Hiring is for the 2025-26 academic year, on a part-time basis, in Spring 2026. Teaching is for two sections of Business, Society, and Ethics, a core course for undergraduate business administration majors. Each section has a maximum capacity of 60 students, and there may be up to one grader available for each section.
We are especially interested in candidates who have a background in normative ethics, and familiarity with applied ethics in a business context. While ethics and law run in parallel, we are seeking to distinguish our business ethics and business law curriculum. One important learning outcome for students in this course is to develop skills in criticizing and defending corporate policies and decisions using normative ethical theories. This may include assignments focusing on classroom debate and argumentative papers.
The ideal candidate will be an enthusiastic and energetic teacher, sharing their passion with students through interactive and vibrant classroom environments.
Topics for an undergraduate business ethics course typically include: contracts and consent, honesty and fraud, exploitation and coercive pressure, product safety and liability, conflicts of duty (e.g., whistleblowing, trade-secrets, insider trading, bribery and corruption), corporate social responsibility, the nature of markets, fair practices and pricing, competitive practices (e.g., monopoly, price fixing), discrimination, wrongful termination, consumer and employee privacy, and meaningful work.
Qualifications
Master’s or terminal professional degree required, doctoral degree preferred.
Relevant college-level teaching experience in normative or applied ethics
Applicants for this position must be currently legally authorized to work for CMU in the United States. CMU will not sponsor or take over sponsorship of an employment visa for this opportunity.

Job Summary
Basic Program instructors are staff instructors who teach from a four-year curriculum of Classical and Western core texts, and a group of two-year Alumni sequences modeled on the core program. While a Basic Program instructor should have some area(s) of related expertise, he/she/they should be able, with sufficient preparation, to teach any part of the standard curriculum. Instructors may also propose and lead courses of their own design. All Basic Program courses are text-driven and use the Socratic method of discussion and analysis. The teaching methodology is as much a hallmark of the Basic Program as is its curriculum of great books.
Basic Program courses are offered in an online format as well as on site at the Gleacher Center in downtown Chicago. All Basic Program courses are non-credit courses, so instructors are not responsible for student assessments – there are no tests or papers to grade. Teaching loads can vary a good deal from quarter to quarter in accordance with instructors’ needs, although assignments will depend on student demand, and on instructors’ performance and seniority.
Instructors receive contracts prior to each quarter confirming their course sections and the compensation to be received for each section. Working hours and total compensation are based on the number of sections taught and can differ significantly from quarter to quarter. Continued employment in the program is dependent on an annual review. The annual review will take into account student evaluations, classroom observations, satisfactory participation in collegial meetings and events and other feedback. All instructors serve at the pleasure of the Dean of the School, as advised by the Chair of the Basic Program and the Director of Academics.
Responsibilities
Leads class discussions in the Socratic Method, following the methodology and style of the Basic Program. Each class section requires 1.5 - 3 hours per week of active instruction time. As courses are not graded, no grading is required of instructors.
Serves as a community-facing member of the Graham School team, engaging with students, answering questions, and corresponding with students via email as needed to address course-related questions.
Learns Graham School online systems to enable teaching online, even if also teaching onsite.
Attends monthly Basic Program staff meetings and other departmental meetings or activities. Please note these meetings and activities are eligible for small stipends in recognition for the additional time commitment outside of active teaching.
Engages broadly with the Graham School community through activities that may include presenting lectures in program-sponsored lecture series, participating in one-day symposia and weekend study retreats, teaching and lecturing in outreach efforts for the program, or serving as trip scholars for our travel-study programs.
Participates in reviewing and modifying the program curriculum; selects editions of texts to be assigned; engages in professional development; and helps to design symposia, weekend retreats and other educational programs.
Works independently and guides work of groups of students throughout the academic year. Interprets issues faced by students, and provides academic and professional advising.
Performs initial and ongoing assessments of students' academic abilities and rates of achievements. Monitors and documents students' progress, participation, and attendance in class.
Performs other related work as needed.
