The Carlos III-Juan March Institute (IC3JM) in Madrid invites annual applications for postdoc research fellowships in the Social Sciences. This year the IC3JM is offering two junior research positions in the field of political science, one for three years, the other for one year.

The Institute seeks candidates working in comparative politics, political economy or international relations, although it is open to consider other subfields in the discipline.

Candidates must have obtained a PhD degree after 1st January 2012 and before 1st September 2015, the date on which the employment contract commences.

Junior research fellows are expected to teach (in English) one undergraduate course during the academic year. Salary will be € 42,000 per year. In addition, there is an annual research fund of € 2,500 for research expenses (conferences, fieldwork, etc.).

Applications should consist of a cover letter, curriculum vitae, at least one sample of academic work, and at least two letters of reference. The cover letter should specify whether the applicant is interested in the three-year position, in the one-year position, or in both (in this case, the options should be ranked).

Applications should be sent by e-mail to Magdalena Nebreda (secretaria@march.uc3m.es) before November 7th.

Reference letters should be sent separately to the same e-mail address.
