With 48,000 students, 9,000 researchers and teacher-researchers, and 11,000 technical and administrative staff, the Paris-Saclay University relies on the production of excellent scientific knowledge which is used to provide cutting-edge training in the sciences and engineering, life sciences and health, social sciences and humanities.
It offers a range of expertise that is unique in the Ile-de-France region and nationally in the study of culture, heritage objects, and forms of knowledge transmission. This expertise is expressed in particular within the Maison des sciences humaines Paris-Saclay and the four Graduate Schools associated with the humanities and social sciences domain.
These themes, which structure the University, are carried out by the humanities and social sciences laboratories of the University of Paris-Saclay. They are the subject of a variety of disciplinary approaches (anthropology, design, economics and management, geography, history, languages, literature and the arts, musicology, law, philosophy, political science, sociology, etc.), but also transversal and transdisciplinary projects led by the Graduate Schools, developed in collaboration with laboratories working in the fields of experimental and digital sciences.
In partnership with the Paris-Saclay University, the Paris Institute for Advanced Study is recruiting a high-level international researcher in the humanities and social sciences (SHS) for a six-month fellowship in the first semester 2022 or the academic year 2022-2023 on the theme of Heritage, Cultures and Knowledge. The institute will host the researcher as a fellow, who will collaborate mainly with one or several laboratories of the University of Paris-Saclay.
Application deadline: Monday, June 7, 3:00 p.m. (Paris time, France)
Applicants may apply for a six-month stay beginning January 1st, 2022, or between September 1st, 2022 and January 1st, 2023.
