Postdoctoral appointment in gender studies
As a postdoctoral fellow, you will primarily dedicate your time to research in the relevant subject area. The project is conducted in collaboration with the project team, but you are expected to work with a high degree of independence in developing, leading and contributing to all parts of the research process.
In this position, you will primarily be responsible for planning, collecting and processing data material, analysing, reporting and disseminating the findings, while ensuring that the work is grounded in the objectives and framework of the project. The position entails conducting research on legal processes with qualitative data collection and analysis of interviews and legal documents. You will work together with the project team at Karlstad University, and our research participants and collaborative partners in South Africa and Peru.
The work aims to generate new knowledge and contribute to the continued development of the scientific field. As a postdoctoral fellow, you are expected to publish your findings in scientific journals and present them at national and international conferences. You will head the work on at least two scientific articles for which you will be the lead author.
The position also includes actively contributing to the academic environment, participating in seminars and supporting the development of research projects. To contribute to a positive work environment and further the department’s activities, we expect you to be a present and active part of the day-to-day operations and workplace community. Teaching duties are included, but will not constitute more than 20% of full-time.
In summary, the role combines independent research with active participation in the academic environment, as well as a commitment to making the research relevant and accessible beyond the university, including through popular scientific communication.
The position is full-time and fixed-term for two years and seven months.
