From: Collins, Margaret [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, February 05, 2010 1:55 PM To: Collins, Margaret Subject: 28 FEB DEADLINE: Apply for IIASA postdoc Fellowship
Dear Colleague, Applications are being accepted for postdoctoral fellowships at the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA), located just outside Vienna, Austria. Applications should be submitted on-line at http://www.iiasa.ac.at/Admin/PDOC/apply_iiasa.html, where you can also find detailed information on the program's goals, conditions and eligibility, application procedure, etc. The application deadline is February 28, 2010. IIASA is an international institution, supported by seventeen governments, that supports international teams of researchers engaged in studies aimed at providing policy insight on issues of regional and global importance. Candidates for the IIASA Postdoctoral Program can apply to work with any of IIASA's fifteen research programs or special projects. (Link to an overview of IIASA's research activities.) An essential part of the on-line application is a research plan outlining the intended work at IIASA and a discussion of the relevance of the planned research for IIASA's agenda. Applicants are encouraged to contact the leader of the IIASA program of interest as they prepare their applications. (Link to a list of Program contacts.) Applicants must have an advanced university degree equivalent to a Ph.D at the time of taking up the post-doc position, a proven record of research accomplishments, and a solid working knowledge of English. The typical period for IIASA-funded postdoctoral support is 12-24 months. We want to spread the word about this great opportunity as widely as possible. Please help by forwarding this announcement to as many appropriate colleagues, graduate students, graduate department secretaries, career service departments, and listservs as possible. To learn more about IIASA, consult the IIASA Website (www.iiasa.ac.at). Very truly yours, Maggie Goud Collins Program Director, US Committee for IIASA National Academy of Sciences/Board on International Scientific Organizations phone: (508)548-2502 email: [email protected]
