USA: The University of Pittsburgh School of Arts and Sciences

Overview

For the first time, the University of Pittsburgh School of Arts and Sciences is offering up to eight postdoctoral fellowships in the humanities and social sciences, to begin in January 2011. These inaugural fellowships are designed to attract scholars from other institutions to the University of Pittsburgh and to offer junior scholars the time, space, and financial support necessary to produce significant scholarship early in their careers.

The Arts and Sciences Postdoctoral Fellowships are for one year and are renewable for an additional year. Fellows will teach two courses per year, complete scholarly work, and participate in the academic and intellectual community of the School of Arts and Sciences and the department or program with which they are affiliated. The annual stipend will be $45,000. Fellows will receive an annual research fund of $3,500 and a one-time reimbursement of up to $1,500 for moving expenses.

Eligible Candidates

We invite applications from qualified candidates in the humanities and social sciences who have received the PhD from outside the University of Pittsburgh between December 1, 2007 and November 30, 2010. Applicants who do not have the PhD in hand at the time of application must provide a letter from the department chair or the advisor stating that the PhD degree will be conferred before the term of the fellowship begins.


Application Deadline / Notification of Awards

All application materials — including letters of recommendation — must be submitted electronically before June 1, 2010. Only fully completed formal applications will be considered. It is your responsibility to ensure that all documentation is complete and that referees submit their letters of recommendation by the closing date. Direct your referees to complete the letter of recommendation form. Awards will be announced in July 2010.
