Postdoc Position Cluster of Excellence “Transforming Human Rights”, Research Innovation Hub (starting April 2026) The Cluster of Excellence “Transforming Human Rights”, based at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU), addresses fundamental questions about the potential and limits of human rights in the context of several major worldwide transformation processes. For more information, see: https://www.humanrights.fau.eu/research-chren/exc-transforming-hr/ The Cluster’s Research Innovation Hub will contribute to fostering inter- and transdisciplinary research within a large-scale, multi-year consortium by helping to identify and pursue new lines of scholarship. It will address overarching theoretical and conceptual questions of human rights that span the different lines of research pursued in the Cluster. For the funding period 2026-2032, we seek a substantively qualified and highly motivated researcher at the postdoc level (TVL-13) for a position attached to the Cluster’s Research Innovation Hub.

There will be the opportunity to pursue a habilitation project. The successful applicant will also be responsible for implementing central tasks of the Research Innovation Hub in close coordination with the Hub’s facilitators, Prof. Almut Schilling-Vacaflor and Prof. Erasmus Mayr.
