About this position

2–3 three-year postdoctoral positions are open at the Department of Political Science, Aarhus University, within the Center for the Experimental-Philosophical Study of Discrimination (CEPDISC).

The center is an interdisciplinary research environment focused on discrimination, combining political science, philosophy, social psychology, sociology, law, and economics. Research at CEPDISC addresses three main questions: what discrimination is and what forms it takes; what grounds there are for objecting to discrimination; and what psychological mechanisms drive discrimination and how it can be countered or mitigated.

Selected postdocs will work in collaborative teams, contribute to publications, and take part in daily research activities at the center. The role includes philosophical analysis, research design, data collection, analysis, dissemination where relevant, and some administrative work such as workshops and seminars. Limited teaching duties are included, leaving substantial time for research.

Applicants should have a PhD degree or be near completion in one of the relevant fields, with a strong interest in discrimination research. Experience with experimental, empirical, or philosophical approaches is especially welcome. Excellent English communication skills and the ability to work in an interdisciplinary setting are required.

The positions are full-time, fixed-term for three years, with competitive salary and research support. Funding is available for conferences/travel, guest invitations, original data collection, and research assistance.

Deadline: 15 September 2026. Applications must be submitted through Aarhus University’s recruitment system.

Funding details

Full funding including tuition fees and living expenses is available for this position. The scholarship covers all educational costs and provides a monthly stipend.
