Postdoctoral Researcher for Edutopias Project
3 weeks ago
The Danish School of Education at Aarhus University invites applications for a postdoctoral position in the field of education history, specifically focusing on the Edutopias project. Research Context
The Edutopias project investigates how utopias, ideas, and visions of the child-centred school were negotiated, disputed, and materialized in everyday practices in Denmark between 1945 and 1975. The project examines school experiments, teacher training, school architecture, and the small-school movement through a new-materialist approach, aiming to create a new understanding of school reforms as rooted in complex, everyday processes.
The Position
The selected applicant will work on the changing edutopian imaginaries and actualizations within the myriad school experiments carried out in Danish elementary schools between 1945 and 1975. The focus will be on experiments relating to the introduction of the democratic and comprehensive school, as well as the changing relationship between teachers, students, and parents. The postdoc will also be expected to participate in the project's research team, publish research findings, and initiate activities with the team.
Qualifications
Applicants must hold a PhD or equivalent in history, ethnology, educational science, or similar. Experience with historical research methods, knowledge of the Danish school system, and advanced language proficiency in Danish and English are required. Experience publishing in English is an asset.
Work Environment
The position is hosted by the Department of Educational Sociology and the Department of Educational Studies. The selected applicant will be based at the Emdrup campus, where they will work in a collaborative environment with the research team.
Aarhus University offers a broad range of services for international researchers, including relocation support and career counseling for expat partners. The university contributes to the development of knowledge, welfare, and culture in interaction with society.
