For the ERC Advanced Grant project "A network science approach to social cohesion in European societies" (see the projects tab for more information), we have four open positions at the UAB in Barcelona, one postdoctoral and three predoctoral positions, each for four years full-time. You will have the possibility to participate in an international, large-scale research project with a team of researchers, who will carry out a cross-national European study (survey, agent-based modeling, and qualitative research). Please check out the calls on Euraxess (see below) and feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Bear in mind that the four positions have different deadlines!

The three PhD students:

-
have the option to do a doctorate under international joint supervision if they wish so, which involves writing one PhD thesis that is submitted in two programs in different countries, as explained in the Euraxess calls and here. It is optional - by no means required.
-
have an additional budget for a three-month stay abroad, and their costs of enrolment in the doctoral program, travels and registration fees for conferences, and the printing costs of their PhD thesis will be covered by the lab.
Information on Spanish income tax rates is given in the calls. People of any nationality can apply.
Applications need to be sent via the university's recruitment system (as indicated in the call); applications via e-mail cannot be considered. The system requires you to first register, and when you do, it will send an email to you with a link to enter the system. There, you can upload the required files. If you have any questions about the recruitment system, please let me know.
We're looking forward to receiving your application!
