University Provost's
Academic Diversity Postdoctoral Fellowship Program
Description:
The Provost's Academic Diversity Postdoctoral Program seeks to increase the
number of scholars who will contribute to academic diversity and excellence at Cornell University and in American higher
education by providing a two-year research, teaching, and mentoring experience.
Promising scholars who have been historically underrepresented in higher
education (including but not limited to African American, American Indian, and
Hispanic/Latino) are encouraged to apply. Fellows will devote their time to
research and will teach one course a year.
Award: There will be three awards
each for a two-year term appointment of eleven months each year. We welcome
applications from all disciplines, with the stipend dependent on the discipline
and experience. Stipends will include health insurance and $2,000 for
relocation/research expenses. Applicants must complete all requirements for the
doctoral degree by August 2006 and should have received the degree within the
past five years. Applicants must be U.S. citizens or permanent
residents.
Application: Applicants must
submit an application letter (including e-mail address) in which the applicant
clearly identifies the area or discipline of proposed research, a curriculum
vitae, statement of proposed research not to exceed five pages, brief
explanation of how the applicant will contribute to academic diversity at Cornell,
and three letters of recommendation. Recommendations should be sent by referees
under separate cover, one of whom must be the dissertation advisor.
The application deadline is Jan. 15, 2006.
