Institute for Labour Law and Industrial Relations in the European Community Scholarship

Universität Trier offers four doctoral scholarships at the Institute for Labour Law and Industrial Relations in the European Community (IAAEG), located at the University of Trier, starting April 1, 2006. Highly qualified students are encouraged to apply for the scholarships, which can last for a maximum of three years. The stipends will be above average (no teaching obligation).

The concept of the programme is the interdisciplinary analysis of labour market institutions from the economic, legal, and comparative perspectives. It focuses especially on the design of efficient labour market institutions and the implementation of appropriate policies in (multinational) companies, employer and worker organisations, national or regional governments, and the institutions of the European Union. Doctoral students will take part in an excellence course curriculum which serves in a theoretical as well as in a methodological way as preparation for the dissertation project.

Applicants should hold an exceptional Master Degree or equivalent in Law, Economics, or Management or another social science. Apart from English (TOEFL is needed) we expect proficiency in another European language. An international background in education or an LL.M as well as the GRE will be considered to the applicant's advantage. Applicants should not have exceeded the age of 28.
