Applications are now open from qualified and highly motivated students for a 3.5-year St Andrews–Max Planck PhD studentship in Population, Health and Data Science. The PhD studentship is funded by the University of St Andrews and the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research (MPIDR).
The PhD student will be working on a project on fertility dynamics and patterns in high-income countries. The project will investigate recent fertility trends in high-income countries and how fertility dynamics are related to changes in individuals’ other life domains (e.g. partnerships, education, employment, housing) and to changes in their socio-economic context. The project will involve analysis of individual-level data from high-income countries (including the UK).
Deadline: 11 June
