salary roughly between 1460 and 1580 €, plus benefits such as health

GRK 2073 Integrating Ethics and Epistemology of Scientific Research
is a research training group that is established as a joint project by
Leibniz Universität Hannover and Bielefeld University. It is funded by
the German national funding agency (DFG). Its research program aims at
bridging the gap between theory and practice in philosophy of science in
two ways: firstly, it examines new connections between theoretical
philosophy of science (epistemology, metaphysics) and practical
philosophy of science (ethics of science, political philosophy of
science); secondly, it analyses relevant links between the cognitive
dimension of the sciences (theories, hypotheses, discourses, models) and
the material culture of the sciences (objects, equipment, experiments,
practices). The working language of GRK 2073 is English.
Applicants must be fluent in English and should be able to
demonstrate an interest in philosophy of science, broadly construed to
include also ethics and political philosophy of science. They should
hold a pertinent university degree (typically an MA degree in Philosophy
or HPS) and must be eligible to enroll as doctoral students in
Philosophy at Leibniz Universität Hannover or Bielefeld University. They
need to specify a dissertation project that fits the aims of the
research program of GRK 2073 as described above.
The obligations of each holder of one of the advertised positions
will be to conduct research on a dissertation project that contributes
to the research program of GRK 2073 and to participate in the training
activities that are specified by the qualification program. Holders of
the positions must enroll as doctoral students in philosophy at Leibniz
Universität Hannover or Bielefeld University. It is expected that they
take residence in the region of their respective campus.
Applications should be sent by e-mail to admissions@philos.uni-hannover.de and must be received by June 5th, 2016. Please consult our application guide for further information on how to apply (as well as on the research training group and the positions offered): Application Guide
