Doctoral Research Fellowship in Philosophy - GOODATTENTION (Sub 3) ref 211327

Updated: over 2 years ago
Job Type: FullTime
Deadline: 15 Jan 2022

We are looking for candidates whose planned PhD project falls broadly within one of the following areas: Philosophy of Action, Decision Theory, Epistemology, Philosophy of Mind and Psychology, Philosophy of Science, Philosophy of Social Science, Meta-Ethics, and Social and Political Philosophy.

The candidate’s project will contribute to subproject 3 of GOODATTENTION , which investigates formal models of rational decision making that incorporate attention as an independent factor. Subproject 3 studies how to integrate such decision theoretic models with research on the role of attention in action. It connects with philosophical work on frame-dependent, context-dependent, and situational reasoning. The candidate’s proposed PhD research should directly or indirectly relate to those issues.

The candidate will be situated in a strong, lively and supportive research environment, both at the GOODATTENTION  project itself, the related SalientSolutions  project, as well as relevant research groups, such as the Oslo Mind Group , or the Centre for Philosophy and the Sciences , or the Logic Group  at the University of Oslo.
