**Postdoctoral Research Assistant, Digital Media Studies 60%**

The **Department of Media Studies** and the **Digital Humanities Lab** at the **University of Basel** are looking for a research assistant (with a doctorate) as of 1st August 2025 or later by arrangement.

**Your position**

In addition to the academic qualification at the University of Basel (i.e. habilitation or equivalent projects) through your own research, the assistant's tasks include, in particular, participation in teaching (2 hours per week per semester, which usually translates to one course), academic self-administration and collaboration in the supervision of students and the academic projects and events at the Department of Media Studies and the Digital Humanities Lab. You will be expected to play a leading organizational role in designing research and outreach programs and events.

**Your profile**

This particular position will be associated with the professorships held by Prof. Dr. Markus Krajewski and Prof. Dr. Ranjodh Singh Dhaliwal. The prerequisite is a doctorate (by the time of appointment) in media studies, science and technology studies, digital humanities, computer science, literary studies, philology, cultural studies, history and philosophy of science and technology, information studies, or other related disciplinary configurations in the qualitative humanities. We are open in terms of your research focus but it must include historically situated and technically rigorous theoretical work as its central component. Additionally, engagements with some of the following domains - cultural techniques, media archaeology, critical making, media forensics, medium design, infrastructure studies, political economy, game studies, and/or code studies - would be welcomed. Also desirable would be experience (or interest) in local and global community building, academic and para-academic event organization, and/or visual design. Strong language and communication skills in English are a requirement. A residence in the trinational region of Basel would be mandatory.

**We offer you**
- an academic CV, and
- only one example of your research (this could be a written paper/article/chapter in pdf form or a link, in a text file, to a digital project that is active and available for us online to peruse), all bound into one pdf file.
