PETAF Initial Training Network: 7 PhD student positions

The PETAF FP7 Marie Curie Initial Training Network is pleased to announce seven 3-year pre-doctoral positions in philosophy, in various European universities.

PETAF is the first research and training network exclusively in philosophy ever to be financed by the European Commission. It aims to serve as a European research and training platform for joint philosophical research on perspectival thought, its linguistic expression and its consequences for our conception of objective, mind-independent reality. PETAF's research programme, which runs for 4 years, addresses both general issues in metaphysics and in logic and semantics and specific issues in more specialised areas in which perspective-bound cognition plays a pivotal role.

The deadline for applications is 19 March 2010, 12pm (Central European Time). For more information, see http://www.ub.edu/petaf/?q=content/call-7-pre-doctoral-positions-philosophy-0 or consult PETAF's webpage at http://www.ub.edu/petaf/.
