Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark Københavns Universitet (KU) Full time

The Department of Communication at the University of Copenhagen invites applications for a postdoctoral research position associated with the Carlsberg-funded project "Tell Me the Truth: Fact Checkers in an Age of Epistemic Instability" (The TMT project). The project aims to investigate questions of facts and truths in public debate and focuses on the practice and role of journalistic fact checkers.

The TMT project contains four subprojects asking different but related questions about journalistic fact checking as a developing practice. The postdoctoral candidate is expected to suggest an independent subproject that either extends one of the existing subprojects or adds a fifth subproject.

The ideal candidate is an excellent scholar of rhetoric, media studies, or journalism studies with experience in theories relevant to the project. They should be able to collect and analyze material relevant to the subproject and be interested in journalistic fact checking and related communication practices.

The successful candidate will collaborate with the project leader and other members of the TMT project group at the University of Copenhagen. The position is a full-time research position with no teaching obligations.

Applicants will be assessed on their research qualifications, publications, and ability to conduct independent research and participate in research collaborations. The application must include a cover letter, CV, documentation of qualifications, a complete list of publications, and a research plan.

The University of Copenhagen offers a competitive salary and benefits package. The position is open to international applicants, and the university provides support for relocation and career development.

The application deadline is September 15, 2024. The University of Copenhagen is an equal opportunity employer and welcomes applications from diverse candidates.
