Copenhagen Business School invites applications for a PhD fellowship in Diversity studies with a focus on the intersection of gender and religion at the Department of Business Humanities and Law (BHL).
The PhD position is a 3 year full-time contract connected to the Carlsberg Foundation research project “Women’s Employment Journey in Danish Multinational Enterprises in the Arab Middle East” led by Associate Professor Claudia Eger. See more information about the project here. The project will last for three years, and the team will consist of a PhD, a Postdoc, and a research assistant. The envisioned starting date of the PhD position is September 1, 2024.
Examples of research topics that the PhD project may cover:
- Connecting religious studies and equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) scholarship
- Sensemaking and identity work of female managers and employees
- History, development and institutionalization of EDI policies and practices in Saudi Arabia and the Arab Middle East
- Women’s employment experiences in Danish multinational enterprises in Saudi Arabia
Core research areas of the Department of Business Humanities and Law are organized into different research Units: Entrepreneurship, Ethics and Leadership; Governance, Culture and Learning; and CBS Law. Faculty within these groups have research backgrounds in all areas of law, political science, sociology, philosophy, history, anthropology, literature, theology, aesthetics, design and innovation, tourism and leisure management, cultural economics, leadership and strategy, pedagogic study, and other areas.
The position will be affiliated with the Entrepreneurship, Ethics and Leadership unit. What unites faculty is an overriding concern for the organization of the human within its multiple environments: work, nature, economy, civil association, the state, and corporation. BHL also participates in numerous interdisciplinary cross-CBS activities. In line with this concern, the PhD should demonstrate a capacity to bridge across several of these environments and place the human at the heart of the project.
