Call for postdoctoral fellowships
Sciences Po Postdoctoral Research Program on the Environment
Fonds Bruno Latour
Sciences Po is launching a call for applications for 10 postdoctoral fellowships as part of the Bruno Latour Fund, a postdoctoral research program on environmental and climate transformations.
Ambitious in its scope, this scientific program aims to host at Sciences Po, on the Paris campus, young social scientists wishing to build a collective and multidisciplinary initiative on how ecological and climate crises are reshaping the contemporary economic, social, legal and political order, and how they invite us to reconsider our history.
These 10 postdoctoral contracts, lasting 36 months, will be filled in two recruitment waves:
- 4 fellowships, Autumn 2022, to start from March 1st, 2023: applications to be sent no later than December 1st, 2022.
- 6 fellowships, Spring 2023, for a start in autumn 2023 - schedule to be confirmed.
The remuneration is 3.400 € gross per month. Successful candidates will be assigned to one of Sciences Po's research centers (see list below), according to their wishes and with the agreement of the center. They will thus benefit from its working environment. Each candidate will receive a personal research fund of 5,000 euros for the duration of his/her contract.
Sciences Po relies on a robust expertise on the environment, anchored in criteria of academic excellence, pluralism and critical analysis. Through their research, postdoctoral fellows will deepen and renew existing initiatives within Sciences Po research centers (Cf Annex : List of research units) and outreach programs developed in partnership with Université Paris Cité (Earth politics center, environmental axis and Laboratory for Interdisciplinary Evaluation of Public Policies - LIEPP). They will contribute to the structuring of an interdisciplinary environmental research workshop (AIRE) group.
Successful candidates undertake, for the duration of their contract, :
- Research: to conduct their research program submitted, to participate in the scientific activities of their home laboratory and in those of the Interdisciplinary Environmental Research Workshop <https://www.sciencespo.fr/recherche/fr/content/latelier-interdisciplinaire-de-recherches-sur-lenvironnement-aire.html>(AIRE).
- Teaching: to give at least one course per year (24 hours) at Sciences Po (on one of the seven campuses, in French or in English, with content to be defined in coordination with the departments)
- Promotion: to write a working paper for the attention of the contributors of the Latour Fund and the general public.
