About this position
This fellowship supports an early-career researcher to carry out postdoctoral research in philosophy at the Institute of Philosophy, Senate House, University of London.
The project theme is broad: “The personal and impersonal nature of life in the universe and of the human person”. The selection panel interprets this widely, so the post is open to research in almost any area of philosophy. The advert emphasises that the work is a single, prestigious postdoctoral fellowship and that the successful candidate will join a research environment based in London at the University of London and its affiliated college.
The fellowship is structured as a paid research post for up to three years, with continuation into years two and three dependent on a favourable interim report. The post is funded by a donation from Mr Jens Jacobsen.
