About the job
PhD Program - Religions
CategoryPositionThe universities of Fribourg, Geneva, and Lausanne, partners of the Doctoral Program in History and Religious Studies (PDHSR), have departments or units already recognized for their specializations in history and/or religious studies, and for the dialogue they have established between philological and archaeological approaches and socio-anthropological approaches. -
These dialogues are particularly highlighted through transversal research axes, such as, for example: the processes of canonization of a tradition, the issue of gender, the critical examination of authors or key notions in the history of the discipline, the conditions for a sound comparison, etc.
The doctoral program in history and religious studies necessarily reflects a diversity of approaches and disciplinary orientations, united by their recognition of the complexity of definitions of the religious in its social articulations. It brings together all doctoral students from French-speaking Switzerland who want to engage in scientific debates in a comparative and interdisciplinary manner and offers them a platform for exchange as well as methodological and scientific meetings.
