About this position
The Jena Schumpeter Center for Research on Socio-Economic Change (JSEC) at Friedrich Schiller University Jena offers a doctoral programme for research on socio-economic change in an interdisciplinary setting. The centre brings together doctoral training across related programmes, including the Graduate School on Social and Behavioural Change and the Graduate College Economics of Innovative Change.
The programme is designed around the idea that complex questions about social and economic change benefit from insights across neighbouring disciplines. Doctoral researchers are encouraged to work in an environment that combines disciplinary strengths with broader interdisciplinary perspectives, aiming to identify research problems and develop promising solutions.
The course is based in Jena, taught in English, and organised as a full-time doctoral programme with structured research and supervision. It is linked to a wider research and training environment that includes discussion and support within the JSEC network and its partner programmes at the university.
