Post-doc position history of science
The Gallatin School of Individualized Study at New York
University
invites applications for a post-doctoral fellowship
for one year in the
history of science and technology, or a related
field, with the
possibility for renewal for a second year. The
Fellowship, which will
begin September 1, 2013, will include a $40,000
annual stipend, a
$20,000 housing allowance, full medical benefits and
assistance with
relocation. The research of the successful candidate
should be
interdisciplinary in nature and complement the work
of historians of
science already at Gallatin, as we look to strengthen
the
history-of-science community within New York
University and New York
City. The successful candidate will advance their own
research project,
teach two undergraduate courses a year, assist in the
execution and
development of the NYC History of Science Group, the
NYU Science and
Society minor and take part in the academic life of
NYU and the
Gallatin School. Candidates are requested to submit a
curriculum vitae,
a research proposal on a topic related to the project
(750 words
maximum), a sample or samples of writing (i.e.,
article or book
chapter), and two letters of recommendation. All
application materials must be received by March 15, 2013. Apply online:
