IRC Postdoctoral Fellowship Opportunities at University College Dublin
ISHPSS
From: Ruth Boeker <ruth....@UCD.IE>
The Irish Research Council offers fully funded Postdoctoral Fellowships at higher education institutions in Ireland. They are open to applicants from all countries for or one or two years of research. To be eligible applicants must have been awarded their doctoral degree within the five-year period before 31 May 2024.
The School of Philosophy at University College Dublin welcomes applications under the IRC Fellowship scheme on a wide range of topics in philosophy. The School has research strengths in areas including, but not restricted to, Contemporary European (Continental) Philosophy, History of Philosophy, Metaphysics, Philosophy of Mind, Philosophy of Language, Epistemology, Ethics, Social and Political Philosophy, and Cognitive Science. We offer a lively culture of collaborative research activity, with invited speaker seminars, international conferences, and thematic workshops. In recent years, we have been very successful at attracting and hosting IRC and other Postdoctoral Fellowships. Potential applicants are encouraged to approach a faculty member at UCD in their area of research with a request to act as their Academic Mentor for the IRC application. We ask potential applicants to share a copy of their CV and a brief research proposal when they contact faculty members.
The UCD School of Philosophy hosts several research centres and projects, including the Centre for Ethics in Public Life (CEPL), the UCD Newman Centre for the Study of Religions, IRC funded research projects at postgraduate and postdoctoral level, and a project on Insincerity and Fragmented Minds (2020-2025) led by Elmar Unnsteinsson.
