Workload Full time
Vacancies 1
Location Erlangen, Bavaria, Germany
Start date 01. August 2024
Job description

– Project SENSOR
A range of new interventions targetting our sensory experiences will soon become commonplace in our society: Virtual and augmented reality, scientific sensory tools, sensory prosthetics, stroboscopic stimulation, psychedelic substances, and so on. In this project, we will study these interventions to develop a better philosophical understanding of the sensory experiences these new interventions provide, but also of ordinary sensory experiences. We aim to fully understand the wide range of perceptual and epistemic benefits that these technologies may offer and the related dangers that they may pose. Project SENSOR will achieve this goal by examining three foundational issues in the philosophy of perception of sensory engineering: the nature of (1) illusion and hallucination, (2) direct and indirect perception, and (3) perceptual knowledge and epistemic risks in cases of sensory engineering. 

The SENSOR consortium has been funded by a joint DFG/AHRC-grant and brings together a team from the Centre for the Study of Perceptual Experience, University of Glasgow (Derek Brown, Jack Lyons, Fiona Macpherson) with researchers from the Centre for Philosophy and AI Research, FAU Erlangen (Sascha Benjamin Fink + this advertised position). Several joint meetings and coordinated events of these groups are planned.

– Research Environment 
The Centre for Philosophy and AI Research (PAIR) was founded in 2022 with support from a prestigious Alexander von Humboldt Professorship for Vincent C. Müller at the Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU, est. 1743). In addition to the AvH Foundation, PAIR is funded by the University, and 3rd party research funding. Our vision is to help set the agenda in the philosophy and ethics of AI, through publications, events, structures, and visible activities. This research will generate intellectual progress that can have a deep impact towards a better society. Our work involves excellent people with a background in philosophy, cognitive sciences, neurosciences, social sciences and computer sciences. We offer an international, stimulating, supportive and pleasant research environment – situated in a lively and modern workplace in the centre of beautiful Erlangen. The working language at PAIR is English.

PAIR currently has 13 members: The director (Vincent C. Müller), a director of research (Sascha Benjamin Fink), 4 post-doc research fellows, 4 PhD students, 2 post-docs associated with funded projects (BMBF-PsychedELSI and DFG-PhiMiSci), 1 admin, visiting fellows, and affiliated FAU faculty. 

For more information, visit https://www.pair.fau.eu

Beyond PAIR, the postdoc will cooperate with the SENSOR group in Glasgow during regular meetings.

– Tasks
The major focus of this position (75%) will be research on the topics of project SENSOR (see link below). What matters to us is your contribution to intellectual progress in SENSOR-related research, plus contributions to the team overall. Academic excellence is assumed, as are teamwork, an international outlook, and fluent English. 

A minor part (25%) will be helping Sascha Benjamin Fink with managerial tasks, e.g. organising project SENSOR, coordinating with the Glasgow team and DFG, organising workshops and conferences, and supporting Fink's work at PAIR. As most administration works in German, proficiency in German is considered a plus, but is not mandatory.

There are no teaching duties associated with this position. The post-doc is expected to be mostly working on-site at PAIR in Erlangen.

– Benefits 
Salary at level TV-L E13, full-time (currently ca. €50-73000/year, before tax, depending on experience).

Job description
Your work assignments

As a PhD student, you devote most of your time to doctoral studies and the research projects of which you are part. Your work may also include teaching or other departmental duties, up to a maximum of 20% of full-time. 

The primary responsibility of doctoral students is to complete their PhD-thesis during their employment at Linköping University under supervision by senior faculty members. 

PhD students will be required to take a number of taught courses (for a total 60 credits). These courses serve to deepen the students’ specialized expertise and strengthen their philosophical competence overall. It is expected that approximately two-thirds of these courses will be taken outside the students’ area of specialization. The language of instruction of these courses will be typically English.

Doctoral students are also expected to contribute to the Philosophy Division’s research environment. They will actively participate in the division’s research seminars and relevant research activities. Additional duties may include teaching, course design, and other teaching-related tasks. The holder of the position is expected to be present at the division on a day-to-day basis

Your qualifications

You have graduated at MA level or completed courses with a minimum of 240 credits, at least 60 of which must be in advanced courses (see below for more details). Alternatively, you have gained essentially corresponding knowledge in another way.

Applicants from Sweden must have completed course requirements worth at least 240 credits (hp), of which at least 60 credits must be at second-cycle (masters/magister) level. International applicants must demonstrate having completed studies of equivalent quality and quantity. As an additional discipline-specific requirement, applicants must have completed courses amounting to 30 credits on second-cycle level in philosophy, practical philosophy, applied ethics, or theoretical philosophy, including a degree project of at least 15 credits. International students must demonstrate having completed studies in philosophy of equivalent quality and quantity.

For this position, priority will be given to applicants whose planned doctoral projects align with the Division’s focal areas in theoretical philosophy, which currently are philosophy of science, philosophy of physics, epistemology, metaphysics, and phenomenology. Research plans that connect with the specialization of one or more of the Division’s faculty members will be given preference.

The selection of candidates will be based on the above requirements and specifications using the material submitted by the applicants. Of crucial significance is a well-developed research plan that details the applicant’s research objectives and outlines how the applicant intends to carry out their research (e.g., methodology, time plan, structure of the planned thesis, connection to previous research or study).  In order to ensure that PhD students receive adequate supervision, topical connection of the research plan to areas of specialization of faculty at the division will be considered to be an advantage. The evaluation of the top candidates may also include references and interviews as well as additional documentation requested. (For details of the application material to be submitted, please see below.)

 The ability to conduct independent and original research competence is to be demonstrated primarily through the applicant’s published research (if any) or through writings submitted in fulfillment of courses taken by the applicant. These can be submitted as writing sample (see below). Evidence of the ability to plan, conduct, and coordinate research projects, and the ability to secure research grants can further strengthen the application (but are not indispensable at this stage).

 Applicants must be sufficiently proficient in English to be able to conduct research and the other activities listed above. Proficiency in Swedish is an advantage.

Your workplace

The Division of Philosophy and Applied Ethics (https://liu.se/artikel/filosofi) offers courses and awards degrees in philosophy at undergraduate, masters, and doctoral levels. There are eight permanently employed faculty members. Teaching at the department of philosophy encompasses all main branches of philosophy: logic, epistemology, philosophy of science, history of philosophy, moral philosophy, aesthetics, philosophy of religion, and more. We also offer courses at other departments of the university, for example, at the Medical Faculty and the Faculty of Engineering. We have been successful in attracting external research funding and several faculty members lead or are involved in research projects of various kinds and dimensions. Some of our research work is characterized by an interdisciplinary focus and we also have a strong interest in philosophical questions pertaining to the role of science in society broadly understood. We organize a lively advanced research seminar that meets twice a month on average showcasing cutting-edge philosophical work by guest speakers from Sweden and abroad as well as our faculty members. In our numerous interdisciplinary cooperations, we utilize a variety of methodological approaches and work actively with several other departments at Linköping University.

The employment

When taking up the post, you will be admitted to the program for doctoral studies. More information about the doctoral studies at each faculty is available at Doctoral studies at Linköping University

The employment has a duration of four years’ full-time equivalent. You will initially be employed for a period of one year. The employment will subsequently be renewed for periods of maximum duration two years, depending on your progress through the study plan. The employment may be extended up to a maximum of five years, based on the amount of teaching and departmental duties you have carried out. Further extensions can be granted in special circumstances.

AOS Music and Musicology in a Philosophy Department
AOC Open
Workload Full time
Vacancies 1
Location Nantes, Pays de la Loire, France
Start date September 1st 2024
Job description

Teaching Profile

The “Humanities and Music” program is unique in France and contributes to Nantes University’s special character, attractiveness and reputation. The program enables Humanities students from various disciplines throughout the “Humanities Cluster” to develop a real understanding of music. Conversely, it enables musicians to deepen their theoretical, aesthetic and scientific reflection on their practice.

Working in a key position within a team comprising an associate professor in philosophy and music, as well as temporary lecturers (academics and professional musicians), the successful candidate will be responsible for the pedagogical and organizational coordination of the “Humanities and Music” program, in addition to teaching.

The courses they will teach may include Musical analysis and harmony, Introduction to composition (second year), Topics in musical culture: panorama of ethnomusicology (first year), Music and human sciences (second year), and History and analysis of Western music (third year). A solid background as an instrumentalist and technical training in the teaching of music theory are therefore required. Occasional contribution to the preparation of competitive exams for teachers of secondary schools (“CAPES” and “Agrégation”) in various disciplines in connection with musical aesthetics, is also expected.

The primary teaching language is French, and the successful candidate will be required to be able to teach in French at the latest one year after their arrival. The ability to teach in another language is also highly desirable.

Research profile

The person recruited will be affiliated with the Centre atlantique de philosophie (UR 7463 CAPhi). They will be involved in developing interdisciplinary research in all the fields represented at CAPhi (including, but not limited to, musicology, philosophy, sociology, or literature) on music and its aesthetic, metaphysical, social or political dimensions. For more information about CAPhi and its activities: https://www.caphi-philo.fr/

The successful candidate may collaborate with colleagues in the other departments of the “Lettres et Langages” Research and Teaching Unit (i.e., Linguistics, Literature and Classics, and Education), or with colleagues in other disciplines in the “Humanities” Cluster. International experience, demonstrated through publications and research activities, will be particularly appreciated, as will responsiveness to calls for applications for research funding.

The successful candidate will contribute to Nantes University’s international standing in the contemporary musicological debate, by strengthening its institutional ties with musicology departments at other universities, and by carrying out international-level research and projects.

External outreach profile

In the absence of a musicology department at Nantes University, the person recruited will be responsible for maintaining long-established external partnerships, both cultural and educational:

- with the international music festival La Folle Journée;

- with Angers Nantes Opéra;

- with the Nantes Conservatory;

- with Ensemble Utopik, a nationally-renowned contemporary music ensemble;

- with the continuing education department of Nantes University (and its university diploma in Music Therapy).

Pursuing a tradition to which CAPhi is strongly attached, the successful candidate will be expected to pay particular attention to the promotion and dissemination of research, and to engage in activities outside the University, for diverse audiences and non-specialists.

Research Fellow (Fixed term)
Job category Postdoc or similar / Fixed term
AOS The Logic and Rationality of Imagination; What if…? Knowing by imagining (WIKI)
AOC Open
Workload Full time
Vacancies 1
Location St Andrews, United Kingdom
Start date 1st January 2025.
Job description

£37,099 - £40,251 per annum

Applications are sought for a Research Fellow (postdoc) to work with Principal Investigator (PI) Prof. Franz Berto, conducting research at the Arché Research Centre at the Department of Philosophy.

The postdoc will work in a 4-year project funded by the Leverhulme Trust, starting on 1st January 2025, and entitled ‘What if…? Knowing by imagining (WIKI). The Logic and Rationality of Imagination’. This will be a four-year, full time research job.

Here follows a short description of the WIKI project:

‘What if?'-counterfactual questions are of momentous importance for scientific explanations (‘Would we see that particle track if the atom was ionized?’), to ascertain responsibilities (‘Would he have hit the brakes, had he not been distracted?’), to choose what to do (‘Would I get to the other side if I jumped the stream?’). We address them by imagining that a hypothetical situation obtains and wondering what would follow. But how can imagination give us knowledge of reality, if it's free departure from reality?

WIKI will apply in the philosophy of imagination tools from formal epistemology, in particular epistemic and probabilistic logic, to address this issue. If we start by taking counterfactual imagination as a kind of simulated belief revision, we can then analyze it using formal theories of belief revision, in qualitative (focusing on full, all-or-nothing belief) and quantitative clothing (focusing on credences/degrees of belief). In three interrelated subprojects, WIKI will (1) develop a logic and formal epistemology of imagination as suppositional thinking, (2) apply them to analyse the workings of scientific thought experiments, and (3) compare them to empirical results from the psychology of reasoning, to provide an account of how we can become better hypothetical reasoners.

The post is available for 48 months starting on 1st January 2025.

Employees of the University have access to a wide range of staff benefits including:

  • Annual leave of 34 days, plus 5 public holidays
  • Membership of the USS Pension Scheme with generous employer contributions
  • A hybrid working environment, including partial homeworking where appropriate and a range of family friendly policies
  • Staff discount scheme for local and national goods and services
  • Free staff parking, employee Carshare and Cycle to Work Schemes and subsidised local bus travel
  • Subsidised sports membership, reduced tuition fees on degree programmes for staff/children of staff, access to library facilities, salary sacrifice scheme and a range of wellbeing initiatives

For further details on the project and inquiries, contact the PI Franz Berto ( [email protected] ). 

Applications are particularly welcome from women, people from the Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) community, and other protected characteristics who are under-represented in research posts at the University.  

Equality, diversity and inclusion are at the heart of the St Andrews experience.  We strive to create a fair and inclusive culture demonstrated through our commitment to diversity awards (Athena Swan, Carer Positive, LGBT Charter and Race Charters). We celebrate diversity by promoting profiles of BAME, LGBTIQ+ staff and supporting networks including the Staff BAME Network; Staff with Disabilities Network; Staff LGBTIQ+ Network; and the Staff Parents & Carers Network.  Full details available online: https://www.st-andrews.ac.uk/hr/edi/

 Closing Date: 30 April 2024.

Job Talk and Interview Dates [online/links to be provided]:  June 10 and June 11, 2024.

Workload Full time
Vacancies 6
Location University Park, Pennsylvania, United States
Job description

Just Transformations Postdoctoral Fellowship

The Pennsylvania State University is in its third year of a 3.1-million-dollar grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation to support its Just Transformations Initiative. This grant allows the University to expand existing programs and develop new initiatives focused on Black studies, racial justice, and diversifying academic communities and pipelines. The College of the Liberal Arts (https://la.psu.edu/) seeks applications from scholars who wish to advance their research or expand their digital and public-facing scholarship.

Up to six Postdoctoral Fellowships will be available for the 2024-25 Academic year. These are one-year, term appointments from the date of hire with a possibility for renewal.

We seek applicants who have a deep and demonstrated commitment to diversity in the academy whose research also focuses on the consequences of racial inequities, barriers to racial equality, and democratic social change and transformation. Scholars from historically underrepresented racial minority groups are strongly encouraged to apply.

As Just Transformations Postdocs, fellows will identify a department or research center/institute (as detailed below) with which to affiliate. Please indicate your preferred affiliation in the opening lines of your cover letter and provide any additional materials that may be required for consideration, as described below. Postdocs affiliated with a Center will also have the opportunity to become affiliated with a department.

Just Transformations Postdocs will enjoy the support of the College of the Liberal Arts’ Office of Digital Pedagogy and Scholarship team (including the Initiative’s Digital Liberal Arts Designer) and will have access to advanced training in digital methods as appropriate to their scholarly projects. No teaching responsibilities are required for these fellowships; however, teaching opportunities may be made available if the scholar wishes to pursue them.

Departments and research centers available for the Just Transformations Postdocs to affiliate with include:

Center for Black Digital Research/#DigBlk Fellow Affiliation: The Center for Black Digital Research (#DigBlk) is a public-facing research center that is committed to bringing the histories of nineteenth-century Black organizing to digital life through collaborative scholarship and project-based research. The Center is home to the award-winning Colored Conventions Project, Douglass Day, and the Black Women’s Organizing Archive. Postdocs who join #DigBlk will work with an interdisciplinary, cross-institutional team of 25-30 members who meet regularly on collaborative research projects that include digital archive-building, exhibit-making, crowd-sourced transcription projects, community-arts partnerships, and scholarly and digital editions. Applicants for #DigBlk are encouraged to explain their interests and experience in working on team-based, archive-building projects that use digital methods to introduce new scholarly and public audiences to the history of Black organizing in the long nineteenth century.

Humanities Institute Affiliation: The Humanities Institute is dedicated to supporting research and teaching in the humanities that is shaped by a collaborative spirit and is alert to how humanities scholarship is crucial for broader conversations about pressing social issues. Several initiatives housed in the Institute are grounded in this mission, including organizing lectures, conferences, and workshops; a “public humanities initiative” for students and faculty whose humanities work connects to socially important questions (including the production of a televised documentary series); and support for collaborative research groups. Just Transformations Postdoctoral Fellows will be invited to participate in events, activities, or initiatives that resonate with their research interests.

Departmental affiliation: Departmental affiliations are available with the departments of African American Studies, English, History, and Philosophy.

More information on the Just Transformations Initiative can be found at https://www.psu.edu/news/research/story/mellon-foundation-awards-31-million-broad-diversity-education-initiative/

Applicants should have their Ph.D. in hand by August 2024. Applications should include (1) a cover letter indicating what department, Center, or Institute you seek affiliation/placement with, (2) a CV, (3) contact information for two references, and (4) a letter describing your work; how you would contribute to the goals of the Just Transformations Initiative and the Department, Center, or Institute you are seeking to join; and how your participation in this project would further your professional development.

Successful applicants will be distinguished by their scholarly excellence, commitment to social justice research and work, and by how their interests align with those of the Department, Center, or Institute that they become affiliated with, along with its values and mission. In addition, successful candidates must either have demonstrated a commitment to building an inclusive, equitable, and diverse campus community, or describe one or more ways they would envision doing so, given the opportunity.

It is expected that the Postdoctoral Fellows will work at Penn State’s University Park, Pennsylvania, campus for the full academic year and contribute to the Just Transformations Initiative by participating in the intellectual life of the campus, working with faculty and students, attending symposia and events, and contributing to Just Transformations or affiliated Center/Department meetings and discussions.

Apply online at Penn State’s Job Posting Board. (https://psu.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/PSU_Academic/job/Penn-State-University-Park/Just-Transformations-Postdoctoral-Fellowship_REQ_0000050562-2) Please note: system limitations allow for a total of 5 documents (5mb per document) as part of your application. Please combine materials to meet the 5-document limit. Review of applications will begin after January 9, 2024, and continue until the fellowships are awarded.

Embedded EthiCS Postdoctoral Fellowship in Philosophy (Fixed term)
Job category Postdoc or similar / Fixed term
AOS Open
AOC Open
Workload Full time
Vacancies 4
Location Allston, Massachusetts, United States
Start date July 1, 2024
Job description

The Harvard Program for Embedded EthiCS invites applications for one or more fellowships based in the Philosophy Department beginning July 1, 2024, pending funding and program needs. The fellowships will be for a maximum of three years, with the second and third years contingent on program funding and a yearly satisfactory review. The postdoctoral fellows will be expected to spend 50% of their time working with the Embedded EthiCS program (including teaching, mentoring, and engagement activities) and 50% of their time on their own independent research. 

Harvard’s Embedded EthiCS is a collaborative, multidisciplinary pedagogical program that embeds the teaching of ethics directly into the computer science curriculum by creating and teaching ethics modules for courses across the CS curriculum. For details about this exciting program, please see ourwebsite. The postdoctoral fellows will have responsibility for: 

  • teaching modules in the program, 

  • participating in a Teaching Lab that develops ethics modules, 

  • coaching less experienced Fellows or Teaching Assistants, 

  • advising an undergraduate senior thesis related to the fellows’ areas of expertise, 

  • participating in engagement activities with other programs around Harvard and the greater Boston area, and 

  • serving as liaison with other groups developing computing ethics education programs around the globe. 

The fellows will have a faculty advisor in the Department of Philosophy and are encouraged to participate in the full range of Department activities. The fellows are also encouraged to participate in the many efforts at Harvard to address the social impact of technology through our program’s ties with Harvard’s Center for Research in Computation and Society; Harvard’s Edmond and Lily Safra Center for Ethics; and Harvard’s Berkman Klein Center for Internet and Society (among many others). 

We seek applicants who are enthusiastic about working with computer scientists to develop ethics modules for their courses and who are passionate about building a more ethical and responsible computing ecosystem. They need not have computer science experience themselves, but they should be eager to engage with computer science experts, even if that requires engaging with technical material. They must demonstrate competence to teach ethics, but ethics need not be their area of specialization. Successful candidates will have significant teaching experience, ideally including experience with cross-disciplinary research or teaching, and enthusiasm about developing ethics pedagogy. 

Applicants must have completed all the requirements for a doctorate in Philosophy or related discipline by June 30, 2024. The term of the fellowship is July 1, 2024-June 30, 2025, with the possibility of renewal (see above).

We strongly encourage applications from women and underrepresented groups, as well as others who would bring additional dimensions to the university's research and teaching missions. Salary is extremely competitive. 

Please submit the following materials by January 7, 2024

  • Cover letter stating your background and interest in the Embedded EthiCS program

  • CV 

  • Teaching statement

  • Teaching portfolio (teaching chart listing courses taught in reverse chronological order; representative syllabi; teaching evaluations, ideally accompanied by a chart or table summarizing the quantitative data on main questions; list of undergraduates for whom you have been primary advisor, if applicable)

  • Research statement 

  • Recent writing sample (no more than 10,000 words) 

  • Names and contact information of three referees, who will be asked by a system-generated email to upload a letter of recommendation once the candidate’s application has been submitted. Three letters of recommendation are required, and the application is considered complete only when at least three letters have been received. Please notify your referees to expect a request for their letter of recommendation. 

If you have questions about the Embedded EthiCS program or the application process, please contact us at [email protected]

Harvard University is an equal opportunity employer, and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability status, protected veteran status, gender identity, sexual orientation, pregnancy and pregnancy-related conditions, or any other characteristic protected by law.

Job description

Prof. E. J. Green, Miller Associate Professor of Philosophy with secondary appointment in Psychological and Brain Sciences, together with the Foundations of Mind Group at Johns Hopkins University, invites applications for a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Foundations of Mind for a target start date of Sept 1, 2024.

The Foundations of Mind Group is a vibrant interdisciplinary group, connecting faculty, post-docs, and graduate students across the university who are interested in theoretical questions about the mind-brain. Its core faculty are appointed in the Departments of Philosophy, Psychological and Brain Sciences, Cognitive Science (including Linguistics), as well as the Zanvyl Krieger Mind-Brain Institute. The group collaborates, co-teaches, co-advises, organizes reading groups, and sponsors talks and other events. Collaborations among group members have recently appeared in journals such as Mind & Language, The British Journal for the Philosophy of Science, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Behavioral and Brain Sciences, Science, Psychological Review, Linguistics and Philosophy, and Analysis. Recent Foundations of Mind postdocs have published in Philosophy of Science, The British Journal for the Philosophy of Science, and Mind & Language, among other venues.  Current members include Professors Steven Gross, Chaz Firestone, Barbara Landau, Ian Phillips, Elanor Taylor, Lisa Feigenson, Shari Liu, Michael McCloskey, Hanna Pickard, Justin Bledin, Jonathan Flombaum, Paul Smolensky, Christopher Fetsch, Marina Bedny, Ed Connor, Christopher Krupenye, Kyle Rawlins, Howard Egeth, and Justin Halberda.

While a PhD in philosophy is preferred, applicants from other fields (e.g., psychology, cognitive science, or neuroscience) with significant philosophical interests will also be considered. Their research agenda should address topics related to the interests of Prof. Green and/or other members of the group. The research should combine perspectives from more than one of the group’s constituent disciplines, and should yield publications that embody this interdisciplinary perspective.

The ideal candidate will also help to organize workshops on topics at the intersection of philosophy and the mind-brain sciences. The candidate will have opportunities to collaborate with Prof. Green and other members of the group. Although teaching is not required, the candidate will have the opportunity to teach (or co-teach) one course during each year of the Fellowship.

The Johns Hopkins University is committed to equal opportunity for its faculty, staff, and students. To that end, the university does not discriminate on the basis of sex, gender, marital status, pregnancy, race, color, ethnicity, national origin, age, disability, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, veteran status or other legally protected characteristic. The university is committed to providing qualified individuals access to all academic and employment programs, benefits and activities on the basis of demonstrated ability, performance and merit without regard to personal factors that are irrelevant to the program involved.

Qualifications
Applications are welcome from candidates who will have their PhD by Sept 1, 2024. Applications will be evaluated based on the applicant’s previous accomplishments, the promise of their proposed research project, and the applicant’s ability to contribute to the intellectual life of the Foundations of Mind group at both an individual and collective level.

Terms of Appointment
The position is anticipated to begin on Sept 1, 2024. It is expected to be a 2-year position, assuming satisfactory performance in the first year. In some circumstances, renewal for a third year may be possible. The position is fully funded. Applicants are expected to be in residence for the duration of the appointment and they may not be employed by another institution during that term. Johns Hopkins offers competitive salary and employee benefits.

One of the two philosophy faculty members who will be on the committee is on maternity leave and will be unavailable to review applications after November. The other faculty member will be out of the country in January. The position was, however, just approved. So this leaves us a very short window in which to receive and review applications.

Location Crawfordsville, Indiana, United States
Start date July 1, 2024
Job description

Wabash College, a liberal arts college for men located in Crawfordsville, Indiana, seeks applicants to fill two types of visiting positions. First, a Post-doctoral Scholar-in-Residence to be housed in the Stephenson Institute for Classical Liberalism. Second, a senior-level Distinguished Scholar-in-Residence, also to be housed in the Stephenson Institute for Classical Liberalism.

The Post-doctoral Scholar-in-Residencies are residential fellowships that support full-time research and publication efforts. The duration of the appointment is one academic year with the possibility of renewal for a second-year term.

The Distinguished Scholar-in-Residence is also a residential appointment to support full-time research and publication efforts, ideally during sabbatical leave from the candidate’s home institution. The duration of the appointment is one academic year, but single semester appointments are also possible on a case-by-case basis.

The disciplinary field, project design, and research approach for both types of positions are open. Successful applicants will have an interest in engaging with our students and participating in the intellectual life of the College and Institute during the fellowship. Applicants will propose a project that contributes to one or more of the subject areas and research topics of particular interest to the Stephenson Institute’s mission:

  • The institutional and cultural conditions of individual rights and legal equality
  • Free inquiry, free expression, free speech, and the market-place of ideas
  • The relationship(s) between market economies and government intervention
  • The role of personal responsibility in a free society
  • Comparative and historical investigations of differing property rights regimes
  • Comparative political economy and comparative political philosophy

Applicants are invited in their proposals to offer other ideas for how they might contribute to the Institute’s programming and areas of student engagement. While the primary focus of the position is research, any Scholar-in-Residence will also contribute to campus conversations via participation in Institute programming. There are no formal teaching expectations, but candidates who desire to teach a course should indicate that interest in their materials. A teaching placement is at the discretion of the relevant academic department.

Preferred start date is July 1, 2024. This position provides salary, benefits, office space, relocation costs, and a generous fund to support research, travel, and related needs. Salary will be commensurate with relevant experience and academic field.
