2 Postdoc Positions in STS and related fields at MCTS (extended deadline 15 July)
Dear colleagues, <br>It seems that these two postdoc positions have not been advertised on this <br>mailing list yet (not to be confused with similar <br> <br>sounding <br> <br>openings at <br>MCTS; for an overview see the RSS feed for job postings <br>). <br> <br>The deadline has been extended until *15 July*. Please apply as soon as you <br>can, if you are interested, and circulate widely! <br> <br>Best, <br>Alex <br>Researcher Positions at the MCTS (Akademische Ratsstellen) <br> <br>*15.07.2018* <br>------------------------------ <br> <br>The Munich Center for Technology in Society (MCTS) at the Technical <br>University of Munich is now seeking two post-doctoral researchers for the <br>following part-time or full-time positions, available immediately and <br>funded for one year (with an option for extension until 2022): <br>Akademische Rätinnen/Akademische Räte a. Z. (A13) <br> <br>*About us * <br>The Munich Center for Technology in Society (MCTS) is a cross-faculty <br>integrative research center dedicated to understanding and reflexively <br>shaping the multiple interactions between science, technology and society. <br>By ad-dressing the pressing challenges of technoscientific developments, <br>the MCTS engages in interdisciplinary re-search, teaching and dialogue. It <br>does so by initiating conversations and collaborations between the social <br>sci-ences, humanities, natural sciences, and engineering. <br> <br>*Requirements * <br>Applicants are expected to hold a doctoral degree. Ideally, they are <br>qualified in both the social sciences or human-ities as well as a STEM <br>field. Knowledge and skills in the field of Science and Technology Studies, <br>especially with regard to issues of responsibility, are beneficial. <br>Furthermore, applicants should be motivated to teach and work <br>self-dependently and actively participate in the discourses at the MCTS. <br>This job advertisement is aimed at quali-fied candidates currently working <br>at natural science / technical TUM departments as well as external <br>candidates committed to promoting interdisciplinary communication and <br>cooperation between the MCTS and other TUM facul-ties. <br> <br>*Job profile * <br>The master’s program “Responsibility in Science, Engineering and <br>Technology” (M.A. RESET) offered by the MCTS addresses both the technical <br>and social aspects of responsibility in today’s highly technologized <br>societies. It provides students with knowledge in STEM fields and trains <br>them to systematically analyze questions of responsibility regarding the <br>social, political, ethical and environmental impacts of science and <br>technology. The primary task of the advertised position is to foster this <br>mission by developing innovative teaching formats in collaboration with <br>other TUM de-partments. <br> <br>*We offer * <br>The MCTS offers an excellent and inspiring international research <br>environment in which researchers can refine and consolidate their profile. <br>It provides many forms of dialogue both with the scientific community as <br>well as the general public and gives researchers access to various <br>promising career pathways. The position includes the pos-sibility to <br>qualify as a postdoctoral lecturer (habilitation or habilitation-equivalent <br>achievement), the traditional route to obtaining a professorship in <br>Germany. Part-time employment is possible. The university is committed to <br>raising the number of women in research and teaching. Female researchers <br>are especially encouraged to apply. Appli-cants with disabilities are <br>treated with preference given comparable qualification. <br> <br>*Application * <br>Applications should be submitted as one single pdf document including a <br>letter of motivation, CV, certificates and a draft for a potential seminar. <br> <br>*Application deadline: 15 July 2018* <br>Please e-mail your complete application to: bewerbung@mcts.tum.de. <br>If you have specific questions about the application procedure, please <br>contact bewerbung@mcts.tum.de. <br> <br>*Technische Universität München* <br>Munich Center for Technology in Society (MCTS) <br>Geschäftsführung Jennifer Apel <br>Augustenstraße 46, 80333 München <br>Tel. +49 89 289 29208 <br>jennifer.apel@tum.de <br>www.mcts.tum.de <br>www.tum.de <br>------------------------------ <br>Files: Researcher_Positions_Akad._Ratsstellen_MCTS_2018_Verl.pdf <br> <br>124 <br>K <br>_______________________________________________ <br>EASST's Eurograd mailing list <br>Eurograd (at) lists.easst.net <br>Unsubscribe or edit subscription options: http://lists.easst.net/listinfo.cgi/eurograd-easst.net <br> <br>Meet us via https://twitter.com/STSeasst <br> <br>Report abuses of this list to Eurograd-owner@lists.easst.netview formatted text
