FIVE COLLEGE WOMEN'S STUDIES RESEARCH CENTER
A collaborative project of Amherst, Hampshire, Mount Holyoke, and
Smith Colleges and the University of Massachusetts, Amherst
The Center invites applications for its Research Associateships for
2001-2002 from scholars and teachers at all levels of the educational
system, as well as from artists, community organizers and political
activists, both local and international. Associates are provided with
offices in our spacious facility, computer access, library
privileges, and the collegiality of a diverse community of feminists.
Applications are accepted for either a semester or the academic year.
The Center supports projects in all disciplines so long as they focus
centrally on women or gender. Research Associateships are
non-stipendiary.
However, international applicants with expertise in transnationalism,
diasporic communities, multiculturalism, or global development may
apply for one of the three special one-semester Ford Associateships
for Fall 2001, which offer a stipend of $12,000, plus a $3,000
housing/travel allowance in return for teaching (in English) one
undergraduate women's studies course at the University of
Massachusetts, Amherst. The research of Ford applicants should focus
on gender, race, ethnicity, class and sexuality within the context of
globalization. Preference given to those whose work crosses
traditional academic boundaries. Ford applicants may work on any and
all regions of the world and need not be studying their own region of
origin.
Applicants for all programs should submit a project proposal (up to 4
pages), curriculum vitae, two letters of reference, and application
cover sheet which is available on the web page. In addition, Ford
applicants should submit a one-page description of a women's studies
course they are prepared to teach, which includes their pedagogical
goals and techniques.
Submit all applications via email or to:
Five College Women's Studies Research Center
Mount Holyoke College
50 College Street
South Hadley, MA 01075-6406
Deadline is February 9, 2001.
