SOCION Research Consortium has 17 vacancies for PhDs from various research fields – deadline 1 April 2026

The SOCION research consortium recently announced the opening of 17 PhD positions. These positions are divided over six research clusters within the umbrella theme ‘Towards a New Fabric of Society’.

SOCION is a research consortium building on the SCOOP program. Bridging psychology, history, demography, philosophy, and sociology, we investigate how shared values, social mechanisms, and changing institutions shape the fabric of society. The PhD positions therefore cover a wide variety of research fields and are open to PhDs from various research backgrounds.

An overview of all PhD positions and a description of the related reserach projects can be found on the SOCION website. The deadline for all positions is 1 April 2026.
