 1-Year Postdoctoral Research Position
Institution/Organization: University of Mannheim
Job Location: Germany
Job Type: Postdoctoral
Contact Person: Herbert Bless / Martin Weber
Date Posted: October 14th, 1999


The University of Mannheim is advertising a postdoctoral position at the SFB 504, available for one year, with a flexible starting date about fall 2000. The interdisciplinary SFB research program involves projects from three different disciplines: business administration, economics, and social psychology. The SFB 504 http://www.sfb504.uni-mannheim.de) is a large scale research grant sponsored by the German Science Foundation (DFG) and affiliated to the University of Mannheim. Researchers involved in the SFB analyze the cognitive processes of individual decision-making mainly in experimental studies (Project A), they investigate various concepts of decision-making in economic applications (Project B), and they assess the implications of a richer set of behavior in different institutional contexts such as organizations or markets (Project C).

Ideally, applicants with a background in business administration, economics, or social psychology should have research interests that are directly linked to the SFB research program. The selected individual will be expected to pursue his or her own research interests. In addition, we anticipate the selected individual to initiate and start research activities with members of the SFB. Technical and financial support for this research will be provided by the SFB. Teaching one course for graduate students and SFB members on topic related to the SFB program would be appreciated. Salary is equivalent to the BAT IIa level of the German public administration salary scheme, which is about 80.000 DM (ca. 44.000 US Dollar) gross per year (depending on age and marital status a higher salary is possible).

Applicants should submit a curriculum vitae, three letters of recommendation, and a statement describing their research interests. For full consideration, applications should be received by Dec. 15, 1999, but applications will be processed until the position is filled. Applications should be addressed to: Prof. Dr. Martin Weber; SFB 504; University of Mannheim; D-68131 Mannheim/ Germany.
