Cfp - PPE Young Scholars Award for Social and Institutional Change

Are you a young scientist who is challenging conventional disciplinary boundaries?

The PPE Institute for Social and Institutional Change (ISIC) at Witten/Herdecke University believes in aspiring young scientists. We invite applications for the annual “PPE young scholars award for social and institutional change”, endowed by the Board of Trustees of Witten/Herdecke University.

PPE encompasses diverse theoretical and methodological perspectives on critical issues at the intersections of philosophy, politics, and economics. With this award, the board of trustees of Witten/Herdecke University and ISIC seek to honor outstanding young researchers whose work advances and challenges the boundaries of these disciplines. Nominations are invited for scholars whose original and creative scientific contributions make a significant impact within and across economics, political science, and philosophy.

The prize is aimed at junior scientists working up to the age of 35 years. It is endowed with 1000,- EUR.

Nominations (including self-nominations) for the Young Scholars Award 2024 should be submitted to the director of ISIC, Prof. Dr. Lukas Stoetzer (lukas.stoetzer@uni-wh.de) by Friday 13 December 2024. Documents should include a CV, list of publications, and a cover letter summarizing the content and relevance of the candidate’s research (not more than 2 pages).

A search committee consisting of four members of ISIC will review all nominations after the deadline and inform all candidates on short notice. For further Information about the Institute, please visit our website.
