Bamberg Graduate School of Social Sciences (BAGSS) is granting PhD scholarship which is funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) as part of the German Excellence Initiative from November 2012 until October 2017. Research at the Graduate School will be conducted in four broad, interdisciplinary fields-
- education, personal development and learning from early childhood to adulthood
- education and social inequality across the life course
- human capital, labour markets and demographic structures and their impact on social inequality in modern societies
- governance, institutional change and political behavior.
The Graduate School is committed to diversity, equal opportunity and the compatibility of family and career. It therefore explicitly encourages applications from women.
Eligibility-
- Applications invited from highly qualified graduates from the fields of Sociology, Psychology, Educational Science, Political Science, Economics, Demography, and Statistics.
- Qualified graduates of related subjects with a strong Social Science background are also encouraged to apply.
- Candidates must hold a Master’s degree (or equivalent) in one of the mentioned subjects or be very close to completion.
- Successful applicants will be required to take up their residence in Bamberg, a city noted for its very high quality of life.
- Applicants with disabilities possessing essentially equivalent qualifications will receive preferential consideration.
