Anja Jauernig (born 1972, Wehrda) is a German professor of philosophy at New York University.[1][2]
Jauernig was born in Wehrda, a small town in Germany that has since been incorporated into Marburg an der Lahn. She spent her formative years in Kirchzarten, a smaller town located in the Black Forest region near Freiburg im Breisgau. At the age of 15, her family relocated to Aachen, a city of historical significance as the residence of Charlemagne and the center of the Carolingian Empire around 800 AD.[3]
She pursued undergraduate studies in philosophy, physics, and psychology at the University of Bonn, a city that formerly served as the capital of West Germany. Her academic trajectory included a year as a visiting student at the University of Oxford. Throughout her youth, she was actively involved in competitive swimming, spending a substantial portion of her time training and competing in pools—an environment she continues to enjoy.[3]
In 1997, she moved to the United States to undertake doctoral studies in philosophy at Princeton University. She began her professional academic career in 2002 with a faculty position at the University of Notre Dame in Indiana. After nearly a decade in the Midwest, she relocated to the East Coast, first to Pittsburgh for three and a half years, and later to New York City, where she currently resides.[3]
