Vacancy: Editor for the Erasmus Student Journal of Philosophy

​

The Erasmus Student Journal of Philosophy (ESJP) is looking for new editors to join the team, starting this fall as we begin working on the 27th edition.

As an editor, you will engage with a diverse range of philosophical texts written by your fellow students. You will select two papers to work on more closely in a small team, providing feedback over three rounds. Our editorial process is double-blind, meaning you will not know the author’s identity, nor will they know yours—ensuring that it is all about the text itself. If you enjoy tackling challenging philosophical writing and want to sharpen your editorial skills, this is the role for you!

​

What we offer:

• Training in editing and philosophical writing.

• An enthusiastic and engaged community of fellow students.

• Opportunities to bring in your own ideas and take on responsibility.

• The chance to read, edit, and learn from the best philosophical papers written by peers, in both analytical and continental philosophy.

Requirements:

• Open to all Philosophy students, except first-year students.

• Proficiency in English is required. Proficiency in Dutch is an advantage, but not essential.

How to apply:

Send a short motivation letter and your CV to esjp@esphil.eur.nl before 30 September.
