University of Helsinki - Helsinki Collegium for Advanced Studies
The Helsinki Collegium for Advanced Studies is an independent institute of the University of Helsinki. The purpose of the Collegium is to engage in high-quality research in the human and social sciences (including law, behavioural sciences and theology), to promote interaction between different academic fields and to further international research cooperation.
The Helsinki Collegium for Advanced Studies invites applications for
POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCHER POSITIONS
for fixed terms ranging from one to three years, to begin on 1 September 2012.
The director of the Helsinki Collegium for Advanced Studies will determine the length of the individual appointments on the basis of the applicants' research proposals.
The qualification requirement shall be a doctoral degree and the ability to conduct independent scholarly work. When selecting the appointees, scholarly work outside Finland and evidence of international cooperation shall be given particular consideration.
Successful applicants will have research experience in the human and social sciences as well as evidence of their ability to work in an international research environment of a high standard. Applicants must also demonstrate in their application how they plan to engage in the inter- and multidisciplinary cooperation conducted at the Collegium.
Each applicant may submit only one application. The applicants may, however, use the same application form to apply for specially allocated thematic grant. The present call for applications continues last year's application theme, which was mortality. The Collegium may select 2-4 researchers with a cross-disciplinary approach whose research interests are related to the theme of mortality. All applicants, including applicants for the specially allocated grant, will also be taken into account in filling the open researcher positions at the Collegium.
The salary will be based on the demands level chart for teaching and research personnel in the salary system of Finnish universities. In addition, the appointees will be paid a salary component based on personal work performance.
The Helsinki Collegium for Advanced Studies has currently 8-12 open positions. The appointees to the Helsinki Collegium for Advanced Studies will be academics at different stages of their careers (postdoctoral/university researcher/research director).
