Job description

I am pleased to share with you the 2024 call for applications for the University of Missouri’s Preparing Future Faculty for Inclusive Excellence (PFFIE) Postdoctoral Program. The Preparing Future Faculty for Inclusive Excellence (PFFIE) Postdoctoral Program is designed to develop scholars for tenure-track faculty positions at the University of Missouri or elsewhere and to support their contributions for promoting inclusive research and teaching environments. 

The fellowships are for two years, during which time the postdocs focus on further developing their independent research programs and participating in professional development activities that integrate and expose them to the faculty experience, including the opportunity to teach during the fellowship. 

Applicants should articulate how their experiences and skills prepare them to contribute to the inclusive excellence of research and teaching environments at Mizzou. 

To be eligible for this program, applicants must have completed their doctoral (or terminal) degree or expect to complete their degree by July 1, 2024. 

General questions about the PFFIE program can be directed to Dr. Valli Sarveswaran, Director of Postdoctoral Education ([email protected]). If you have any questions about applying to our research area specifically, I am happy to answer your questions.

Sincerely,

Philip Robbins, Chair
