We are a leading research institute in the field of European legal history.

We are looking to recruit up to six Doctoral Students from 1 October 2015 or as soon as possible thereafter for the following research fields in the department of Professor Stefan Vogenauer:
- Legal Transfer in the Common Law World
- Legal History of the European Union

Your tasks
You will develop, co-ordinate and pursue a doctoral project in one of the two research fields. Your doctoral thesis will turn on
- the development of rules, principles, doctrines and institutions of English law outside England, for example in selected jurisdictions of the British Empire; or
- the legal history of selected areas of EU law, particularly in their interaction with the legal systems of the member states.

You will publish your findings and actively participate in the research activities of the Institute under the guidance of Professor Vogenauer.
