Fixed Term: 4 years (48 months)

Application deadline: 8th April, 5pm at stephanie.dornschneider@ucd.ie

Proposed Start Date: 2nd May 2024

Applications are invited for a PhD doctoral researcher within the UCD School of Politics and International Relations to deliver the research objectives of a project funded by the Irish Research Council.

Tasks will include POS tagging, sequence analysis, visualization, and web-scraping.

Knowledge of Arabic is a plus but not a requirement.

The benefits include:

  • €25,000 tax-free stipend per year for 4 years.
  • Full fees paid every year.
  • Dedicated office space.
  • Access to university resources, such as library and campus facility.
