University of Antwerp, PhD Positions in Philosophy of Mind

Sep 16, 2014 Nov 14, 2014

Two Fully Paid PhD Positions in Philosophy of Mind, especially Philosophy of Perception

Applications are invited for three fully and (for US and UK standards) very generously paid PhD studentships in philosophy at the University of Antwerp. The PhD student will be part of Bence Nanay’s research group and will be supervised by Professor Nanay. The PhD in Belgium normally takes four years and PhD students are public employees with very generous benefits. Antwerp is commutable from a number of European cities, including Paris, London, Amsterdam, Frankfurt and Cologne. All research and communication is conducted in English.

Candidates must have an MA degree in philosophy (when they start their PhD). Some background in psychology, cognitive science, neuroscience or primatology is a significant plus. Years spent in a PhD program elsewhere may count towards completion.

In the light of recent findings on implicit bias, the candidates are asked to send their application material fully anonymized: Please send an anonymized cv, an anonymized max 5000 word writing sample and an anonymized max 1-page research statement to nanay@berkeley.edu and have two letters of reference sent to the same email address. Please write ‘PhD: Phil Mind’ in the subject line of any email sent. More info: info

Deadline: November 9
Starting date of the position: Winter/Spring/Summer 2015 (negotiable)
