hela Sverige History at Södertörn University is a dynamic environment for historical research and education, with researchers who specialise in a variety of time periods and societal or cultural processes. Sweden, the Nordics, and the Baltic Sea region and Eastern Europe are the main geographical areas of expertise. History is taught from Bachelor's to doctoral level and is an important part of several multidisciplinary programmes, where gender and interculturality are central aspects. At doctoral level, we are a partner in the National Graduate School of Historical Studies that is hosted by Lund University. For more information, please click here. For a Swedish version click here.
Doctoral education at the Department of Historical and Contemporary Studies is part of the research area of Historical Studies. This is an interdisciplinary research environment in the humanities, in which aspects of society, culture and heritage are studied from different perspectives. The area is characterised by an empirical and theoretical focus on social and cultural change and long time perspectives. Historical Studies includes five subject areas for doctoral studies: Archaeology, Ethnology, History, History of Ideas, and the Study of Religions.

The planned research for this studentship must be relevant to the Baltic Sea region or Eastern Europe, since the position is affiliated with the Baltic and East European Graduate School (BEEGS),
www.sh.se/beegs, which is financed by the Foundation for Baltic and East European Studies, and part of the Centre for Baltic and East European Studies (CBEES)
www.sh.se/cbees, at Södertörn University.
