PRIMO is a global PhD programme studying the rise of
regional powers and its impact on international politics at large. Funded by the European Commission, the network
consists of 11 partner institutions and 3 associated partners from the
academic, business and think tank world. PRIMO includes 12 PhD and 2
Post-Doc-Projects.
All PhD positions include a generous salary (country
specific) according to the EU Marie Curie framework for Early Stage Researchers
(ESRs), attractive secondment opportunities to other partners in the network
and a state of the art training in methods and transferable skills.
PRIMO studies the actions, relations, processes and
mechanisms of BRICS states’ interactions, both in their own regions and with
well-established powers, multilateral institutions and non-state actors. PRIMO
will account for processes of identity construction, the formation of foreign
policy goals, and the strategies of regional powers at the regional and global
level. This knowledge is highly relevant for the formulation of European
foreign policies and strategies in multilateral institutions. As a network of
public and private partners with an ambitious outreach strategy, PRIMO aims to
directly infuse this knowledge into the policy process.
The PRIMO PhD programme includes:
• novel
theoretical approaches to the study of regional powers,
• an
encompassing training in new qualitative methodology,
• practical skills such as academic
management, grant applications or the writing of risk assessments for the
private sector,
• the
acquisition of empirical expertise on regional and emerging powers,
• concrete
practical career opportunities in academia or the private sector.
