Vacancy number: 13-249
Duties and responsibilities
We seek a Post-Doctoral Fellow with excellent qualifications to work in the NWO Project Buddhism and Social Justice.

They should have an excellent command of English and be prepared to present their research results in English. Within the one year time frame, the successful candidate should engage in research, prepare at least one article for publication, and participate in the project’s upcoming international conference.

The position is for one year with a full-time appointment. The salary is determined in accordance with the current scales as set out in the collective labour agreement for the Dutch universities (CAO): min. € 2.427, max. € 3.491, with additional holiday and end-of-year bonuses.
