One doctoral studentship in Political Science.The studentship is connected to the Baltic and Eastern European Graduate School (BEEGS)

Political Science

The political scientific environment at Södertörn University is theoretically and methodologically varied, plural, and also strongly active in interdisciplinary research and knowledge production within and outside of the university. Applications for the studentship will be evaluated both for their levels of scholarship and - since the announced positions are connected to the Baltic and Eastern European Graduate School, BEEGS - for their fit within the research orientation within Södertörn University's area-studies profile, Political Science

The position involves both admission to third-cycle education (that is, at doctoral level) and employment on a doctoral studentship. The intended outcome for students admitted to third-cycle education is a PhD. The programme covers 240 credits, which is the equivalent of four years of full-time study. A doctoral student's working hours should primarily be dedicated to his/her third-cycle studies.

Entry requirements and selection

The general entry requirements are one of the following:

1. a second-cycle/master level qualification,

2. fulfilment of the requirements for courses comprising at least 240 credits of which at least 60 credits awarded at second-cycle/master level, or

3. the acquisition of substantially equivalent knowledge in some other way in Sweden or abroad.

Specific entry requirements

A qualified applicant has the equivalent of 90 credits in political science and has successfully completed second-cycle studies in political science or has attained the same qualifications outside Sweden; or has previously taken some equivalent degree. Under special circumstances, the faculty board may exempt an applicant from fulfilling certain qualification requirements.

Employment

An application for admission to third-cycle studies is also an application for employment on a doctoral studentship. The employment is for no longer than the equivalent to a maximum of four years full time studies. Doctoral students will have the opportunity to be engaged in teaching and/or administrative tasks at the institution. These tasks may be equivalent to no more than

20 % of full-time and, in such cases, the length of the doctoral studies will be extended accordingly. The provisions relating to employment on a doctoral studentship are stated in the Higher Education Ordinance, Chapter 5, Sections 1-7 The first date of employment is 1st of September 2016.
