Job Description
Do you want a research education as a salaried and institutionally supported PhD student?
The Department of Political Science and Public Management, University of Southern Denmark invites applications for 3 to 4 PhD scholarships within the research areas political science, public administration, international and regional politics, welfare studies or journalism studies as of January 1, 2025, or as agreed.
As a PhD student, you will be affiliated with one of the department's three research sections: Public Administration, Welfare and Politics (PAWP), International and Regional Politics (IRP), or Journalism (JOUR). For more information about the department organization, strategy, research, and teaching, please visit the website.
The Public Administration, Welfare and Politics research section is comprised of the two research fields public administration and welfare studies. The scholars focus on various research areas within public management and administration, comparative welfare studies and social policy as well as comparative politics and political economy. The section also provides high-quality, research-based teaching and supervision in the political science study program and the two professional master study programs in public management, and they disseminate research-based knowledge to key stakeholders.
The International and Regional Politics research section consists of the Center for War Studies, the Centre for Border Region Studies, and the Danish Centre for Rural Research. They conduct research on different areas such as contemporary security issues, the changing characteristics of war and the relationship between war and peace; European border regions in the past and present; as well as understanding and improving life in rural areas.
The Journalism research section, consisting of the Centre for Journalism, is centered around two joined research networks; one is focused on rhetoric and journalistic usage of language, the other on social, societal, and political aspects of journalism. The Centre for Journalism offers both bachelor and graduate degrees in journalism, short-term, mid-career courses for journalists, and trains doctoral students.

The project is individual, but it should be related to the ongoing research areas in the relevant section (see above). The department are open to research proposals within all areas. However, we are especially interested in proposals within: AI, management and leadership and/or Danish politics.
We are looking for candidates who (please also consult the Scholarly Qualification Matrix):
- have a curiosity and a strong desire to generate new research ideas.
- are able to work independently and, in consultation with the PhD supervisor, prioritize the different aspects of the PhD plan, including participation in PhD courses, teaching and supervision of undergraduate students.
- will apply for smaller grants and/or participate in applications for larger grants.
- have good interpersonal skills.
- are interested in engaging with the national and international research community (your supervisor and the department will support you in this), i.e., participate in conferences and present own work.
- prioritize being present and taking part in the daily academic and social environments at the department.
When applying, you must enclose a project proposal as well as a suggestion for a supervisor (if possible). When preparing these documents, you are strongly advised to consider the research profile and the staff of the relevant section. Please also consult the general guidelines for preparing a project proposal at the PhD School's webpage.
The department believes in fostering a stimulating and inspiring environment for both faculty members and students. The department's ambition is therefore to recruit, develop, and retain talented scholars committed to both academic excellence and departmental development. Furthermore, the department wishes our staff to reflect the diversity of society and thus welcomes applications from all qualified candidates regardless of personal background.
