Full-time Full Professor of Political Science, Specialisation International Relations and Multilateralism

Sciences Po’s overarching mission is to educate future leaders in the public and private sectors. Sciences Po is an equal opportunity employer and invites women to apply.

Requirements

Research Through their publications, candidates will demonstrate their ability to conduct innovative and internationally recognised research. They will demonstrate their integration in national and international scientific networks and their willingness to contribute to the research programmes conducted at the Centre for International Studies (CERI). This centre has cultivated its identity based on several singularities (use of diverse sociological traditions and analysis of normative issues).

The candidate’s research focus should adapt and match such characteristics by dealing with institutions and practices of multilateralism as a mode of international cooperation. The candidate will be expected to co-lead the GDR GRAM (Research Group on Multilateral Action) and to contribute to the activities of the CERI’s field of research entitled “Actors and Levels of Regulation in World Politics”. She/he will also be invited to join other programmes in International Relations—those r! elated to diplomatic practices on the one hand, and to non-Western and post-Western approaches on the other—as well as to one of the other fields (Identity and Politics, the transformations of the State, Political Participation and Mobilization, Violence and Risk Management).

Specialisation in one of the regional areas covered by the CERI is a condition for the recruitment. Applications with a focus on Southeast Asia or the Far East are an asset in this regard.
