About the job
PhD Programme - Religions
CategoryPositionThe universities of Fribourg, Geneva and Lausanne, partners of the Doctoral Programme in History and Sciences of Religions (PDHSR), have departments or units already recognised for their specialisations in history and/or sciences of religions, 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 canonisation 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 programme in history and sciences of religions 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 candidates from French-speaking Switzerland who wish 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.
