Ph.D. Student and Post-doctoral fellow Positions in Health Communication

The Institute of Communication and Health at the University of Lugano (Università della Svizzera italiana), Switzerland invites applications for a Ph.D. student position as well as for a Post-doctoral Fellow position in the Faculty of Communication Sciences. Acceptance includes funding of tuition and stipend for three years (contingent on satisfactory progress). The Post-doctoral Fellowship is also available for three years and salary is competitive and dependent on experience and qualifications. Funding is provided through research grants from the Swiss National Science Foundation focused on addressing problems arising from limited health literacy and patient empowerment, including misuse of prescription medications (Dr. K. Nakamoto), vaccination refusal and older patients’ participation in health care (Dr. P. Schulz).

We are particularly interested in students with backgrounds in communications, psychology, and related disciplines. Application reviews will begin April 15th, 2014 and continue until the positions are filled. Accepted students will be joining an active research group including three core faculty members, six post-doctoral fellows, and eight current Ph.D. students. The Institute of Communication and Health has a growing international reputation for its research on health communications and has active collaborations with several universities in Switzerland, the European Union, and the United States.

Interested applicants should send a letter of interest describing research and career interests, curriculum vitae, undergraduate transcript, and at least two academic letters of recommendation to:
