Dartmouth opportunity: Postdoc in ethnicity, race and migration


    Dartmouth College Department of History invites applications for a Guarini Dean's Postdoctoral Fellowships in Ethnicity, Race, and Migration in the U.S. Context. This fellowship supports scholars whose research addresses these themes; we are especially but not exclusively interested in transnational approaches. In addition, the fellowship promotes student and faculty diversity at Dartmouth, and throughout higher education, by supporting underrepresented minority scholars and others with a demonstrated ability to advance educational diversity. Applicants will be selected on the basis of their academic achievement, promise in both research and teaching, and their demonstrated commitment to addressing racial underrepresentation in higher education. The PhD must be conferred by the start of the fellowship.

    This is a two-year residential fellowship, with one course taught in the second year. Throughout, fellows are expected to pursue research activities while participating fully in the intellectual life of the department and the college. Fellows receive an annual stipend of approximately $55,200 plus benefits and an allocation for research expenses (exact funding levels will be set at the time of offer).

     Guarini Dean's Postdoctoral Fellows are part of the Provost's Fellowship Program, a multidisciplinary cohort of approximately ten predoctoral and postdoctoral scholars who share a commitment to increasing diversity in their disciplines. Fellows participate together in mentoring and professional development programming, including guidance in preparing for faculty careers.

Qualifications

The PhD must be conferred by the start of the fellowship.

Application Instructions

Application Materials: (1) Cover letter, including overview of research areas and teaching interests; please also describe your prior contributions to advancing diversity in higher education and your motivations to join this multidisciplinary fellowship program; (2) CV; (3) Project description (maximum two pages, single-spaced); (4) The names and full contact information of your dissertation advisor and of two additional scholars who would provide confidential letters of recommendation upon request.

Please submit your file via Interfolio https://apply.interfolio.com/70972.

We prohibit discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, age, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, disability, veteran status, marital status, or any other legally protected status. Applications by members of all underrepresented groups are encouraged.

     Your offer is contingent upon your consent to a pre-employment background check with results acceptable under Dartmouth policy.
