Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich is seeking applications for an

Assistant Professorship in Mathematical Philosophy

at the new Munich Center for Mathematical Philosophy (MCMP) which will be 
tied to the Chair in Logic and Philosophy of Language (Prof. Dr. Hannes 
Leitgeb) at the Faculty for Philosophy, Philosophy of Science and the 
Study of Religion. The position, which is to start from October 1st 2010, 
is for three years with the possibility of extension. Technically, it is a 
so-called 'Akademische Ratsstelle auf Zeit' in the Bavarian university 
system, which means basically that one has the rights and perks of a civil 
servant.

The appointee will be expected (i) to do philosophical research assisted 
by logical or mathematical methods, (ii) to teach five hours a week in 
areas of philosophy in which logical or mathematical methods are applied, 
and (iii) to take on management tasks in the new Munich Center for 
Mathematical Philosophy. The successful candidate will have (iv) a PhD in 
philosophy or logic, and (v) teaching experience in philosophy or logic.

The appointment will be made within the German A13 salary scheme. More 
information on this position can be found at:

Women are currently underrepresented in the Faculty, therefore we 
particularly welcome applications for this post from suitably qualified 
female candidates. Given equal qualification, severely physically 
challenged individuals will be preferred.
