The Global South Studies Center (GSSC) at the University of Cologne (UoC) is pleased to announce one post-doc position (100% TVL-13), starting from 1 October 2015 or earlier until 31 December 2018.

The GSSC is part of the UoC’s Institutional Strategy "Meeting the Challenge of Change and Complexity”. It was implemented as an innovative and integrated approach to further and promote top-level international research on “Socio-Economic, Cultural and Political Transformation of the Global South” at the UoC.

We encourage applicants from the fields of Social and Cultural Anthropology, Geography, History, Cultural- and Area Studies to apply. The successful candidate will conduct research, support international cooperation and produce academic output in one of the four research areas of the GSSC: “Migration and Citizenship”.

The applicants are expected to hold a PhD in one of the above-mentioned disciplines and to have published internationally; fluency in English and research experience in the Global South are further necessary prerequisites. Experience in interdisciplinary research as well as in applying for grants are of advantage.

The position is full-time; the salary is based on the German TVL-13 scale if terms and conditions under collective bargaining law are fulfilled. The University of Cologne is an equal opportunity employer in compliance with the German disability laws. Women and persons with disabilities with equal capability, suitability and professional experience are favored and strongly encouraged to apply.
