The Department of Heritage and Antwerp Cultural Heritage Sciences (ARCHES) research group in the Faculty of Design Sciences is looking for a full-time (100%) doctoral scholarship holder in the field of digital heritage.
Position
- You will work actively on the preparation and defence of a PhD thesis. The PhD project, titled ‘Modelling Space-Time Uncertainty in Archaeological Excavation Information’, aims to enhance the representation of information related to instances of uncertainty across space and time encountered during archaeological excavations. The project explores how semantically rich graph data models can be useful in this context and investigates how representations of uncertainty encountered during archaeological excavations can be modelled and integrated into existing data models, such as CRMarchaeo.
- You will publish scientific articles related to the research project.
- You will carry out a limited number of teaching and research support tasks for the Department of Heritage.
Profile
- You hold a Master’s degree in Archaeology, Heritage Studies, Digital Humanities, or a related discipline, or you will have obtained it by the time you start work.

- Your teaching competences are in line with the University of Antwerp’s educational vision .
- Your research qualities are in line with the faculty and university research policies .
- You act with attention to quality, integrity, creativity and cooperation.
- You are fluent in spoken and written academic English and can provide evidence of this if necessary.
- A close affinity with topics in digital archaeology, as well as conceptual and methodological approaches to archaeological space and time, is desirable.
- Basic conceptual and/or practical knowledge of relational and graph data models, data standards commonly used in archaeology and/or heritage studies, semantic web-related technologies, and/or interdisciplinary approaches to handling uncertainty, is desirable.
- You are a team player and willing to participate in archaeological fieldwork for four to eight weeks during late spring, summer, and/or early autumn.
What we offer
- We offer a doctoral scholarship for a period of two years, renewable for another two years after a positive evaluation.
- The planned start date is 01 October 2024.
- Your monthly scholarship amount is calculated according to the scholarship amounts for doctoral scholarship holders on the pay scales for Contract Research Staff (Dutch: Bijzonder Academisch Personeel, BAP).
- You will receive ecocheques, Internet-connectivity allowance, and a bicycle allowance or a full reimbursement of public transport costs for commuting.
- You will do most of your work at City Campus in a dynamic and stimulating working environment.
