    Post-doc and PhD positions on the dynamics of trust and legitimacy

     

    In support of its recently created, research-oriented Chair for Public Trust in Health, Grenoble Ecole de Management offers a post-doctoral position as well as a PhD-position to study dynamics of trust and legitimacy in the pharmaceutical industry, with a particular emphasis on recent developments in immunotherapy.

     

    Candidates for the post-doctoral position should be at an advanced stage in their doctoral studies, have experience in exploring macro-level dynamics, and be familiar with previous research on trust and legitimacy. The post-doctoral position will be funded for two years; it is fully dedicated to research and dissemination, provides generous conference support as well as optional teaching opportunities for interested candidates. Knowledge of French is an advantage, but not a requirement. The position will be upon until filled.

     

    Funding for the PhD position will include tuition waiver, generous living allowance as well as support for conference attendance. Potential candidates must apply for the PhD in Business Administration program at Grenoble Ecole de Management by the final application deadline (27 April 2017) for a September 2017 commencement and should specify in their application that they wish to be considered for a position related to the Public Trust in Health Chair.

    The current members of the Chair's research team combine strong research credentials in the areas of institutional theory, legitimacy, and social valuation with publication experience in leading international journals such as Academy of Management Review, Academy of Management Journal, and Organization Studies. Potential candidates are invited to contact the Chair's coordinator, Prof. C.
