Appel à candidature : Contrats doctoraux pour le programme « MIMESIS » (Munich, 1er avril 2017)

minesisThe International Doctoral Program (IDP) MIMESIS is dedicated to innovative doctoral research in the fields of literature and the arts, with special emphasis on historical, theoretical and transdisciplinary perspectives.

In addition internships with leading cultural institutions and at partner universities will be integrated into the study program.

The applicants should hold an excellent/above average master’s degree or equivalent in literature, art history, theatre or film studies or related subjects.

The positions will be granted for 2 years with the possibility of renewal for one more year.
Applicants should be prepared to take up residence in Munich.
