New Professorship for the Sociology of Social Policy established
We welcome Prof. Dr Philipp Lersch at the ISW.
Prof. Dr Philipp Lersch started the newly created professorship for Sociology of Social Policy in May 2018. This professorship is funded by the Federal Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs (BMAS), within the network Interdisciplinary Social Policy Research (FIS). A permanent professorship at the ISW has been established as a joint professorship together with the Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP). The professorship is intended to strengthen social policy research in teaching and research.
