Call for Applications Type: Postdoctoral Fellowship in the Study of Race and/or Ethnicity Institution: Society of Fellows in the Liberal Arts, Princeton University Location: Princeton, NJ (USA) Date: 2015–2018 Deadline: 1.10.2014 __________________________________________________ The Postdoctoral Fellowship in the Study of Race and/or Ethnicity is sponsored jointly by the offices of the President and Dean of the Faculty of Princeton University, and the Princeton Society of Fellows in the Liberal Arts. The postdoctoral fellow will be expected to pursue research that explores the discursive forms and meanings of concepts of race and ethnicity in one or more selected disciplines in the humanities and social sciences. The selection committee particularly welcomes applications from candidates whose scholarship is driven by innovative, interdisciplinary, and historical ways of thinking – including interests in pre-modern and non-western cultures. In each of the first two years, the successful candidate pursues research half-time and teaches one course of his/her design each semester, either in the host department or an interdisciplinary Program. In addition, the fellow normally does some advising in his/her specialty or related areas. In the third year, the fellow teaches one course in the fall semester and devotes the final semester to full-time research. The salary for each of the three years of the fellowship will be approximately $80,000. In addition, fellows are provided with a shared office, a personal computer, a research account of $5000 a year, access to university grants, benefits and other resources. Fellows are expected to reside in or near Princeton during the academic year in order to attend weekly seminars and participate fully in the intellectual life of the Society. If you have already applied to the Princeton Society of Fellows, you may not apply a second time. Application deadline: October 1, 2014. All candidates will be informed of the status of their applications by the end of January 2015. Interviews will take place in early February. The Society will reimburse the cost of travel and lodging associated with the interview. Names of fellowship winners will be posted on the Society of Fellows' website in July 2015.
