A full time researcher/postdoc with focus on Medical Humanities at the Center for Gender Research for one year starting August 2016.
The Centre for Gender Research at Uppsala University is an interdisciplinary unit and has three main tasks:
- Teaching
- Research
- Research information
Duties: The duties include research, which should result in an application for
external funding for a research project. The project will be located at the
Center for Gender Research, and it should have a gender perspective with focus
on the topic that the current employment concerns. The project could include
researchers from different disciplines.
The position can also
include certain research administrative tasks and teaching. The person that is
appointed is expected to take active part in the Centre’s seminars and to contribute
to the development of the Centre's research environment.
Eligibility: To be eligible for employment as a researcher/postdoc, the applicant must
have a PhD or equivalent. We are looking for researchers from diverse disciplines,
applying gender perspectives, and who have the personal characteristics required to meet the demands
of the position well. The work requires the ability to work
independently as well as the demonstrated
capacity to interact with others both within academia and in the wider
community. Particular emphasis will
be placed on the intended research project.
The application should include a short CV, a project plan, and motivation for why the applicant wishes to pursue research at the Center for Gender Research during the current period, a list of publications and other documents that the applicant wishes to refer to.
Uppsala University appreciates the qualities that gender balance and diversity brings to the organization. We therefore welcome applicants of any gender and with different birth background, functionality and life experience.
