Salary levelEGR. 13 TV-L
Application deadline04.04.2023
Scope of workfull-time position suitable for part-time**Responsibilities**:
Duties include teaching and research in the respective department or institute. Research associates may also pursue independent research and further academic qualifications as well as acquire teaching experience. These duties are intended to promote academic achievement.

Specific Duties

The position is associated with Prof Dr Eray Çaylı’s professorship which focuses on Violence and Security in the Anthropocene. While both the professorship and this post are interdisciplinary, they both have a number of empirical and methodological foci that are prioritized and that include the following: Spatial politics; Qualitative methods; Racialized, classed and/or gendered underpinnings and consequences of climate change and environmental disasters with a view towards social justice; Turkey, its environs, and their diasporas. The postdoc is expected to plan, develop and conduct research projects with these foci in mind, as well as disseminating findings from their recent and ongoing research projects (through publications and conference attendance). Application for funding to undertake independent projects, possibly in collaboration with other universities or partners, will be supported. Besides independent research, the position involves 4 LVS ("semester hours") of teaching per week in English. The teaching duties will be linked to the lecture course "Critical Approaches to the Anthropocene" (Master level) and the seminar course "Urban Geography" (Bachelor level) both based at the Institute for Geography. The position benefits from relevant research clusters and initiatives at the university, with which Prof Çaylı is affiliated, including the profile initiative “Violence and Security” and the Cluster of Excellence “Climate, Climatic Change, and Society” (CLICCS). Where relevant, the postdoc will be expected to contribute to the organization of academic and/or public-facing events, such as lecture series, symposia, and conferences.

**Requirements**:
Further requirements are as follows:

- experience in university teaching (preferably at both Bachelor and Master level) and in organizing academic and/or public-facing events
- experience in disseminating research findings through both published work and conference attendance
- experience in fieldwork especially with grassroots organizations or with communities inhabiting contexts relevant to the abovementioned research foci
- general IT skills and basic proficiency in popular software used for university education and for disseminating research (e.g., Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Adobe Acrobat, Photoshop, etc.)
- a strong commitment and willingness to work independently
- proficiency in English (both verbal and written)

In addition to the above, working knowledge of one or more of the following languages is highly desirable: Kurdish (especially Kurmanji), Armenian, Greek, Arabic, and Suret.
