Job description |
The Penn Program in Environmental Humanities (PPEH) at the University of Pennsylvania invites applications for a two-year Mellon Postdoctoral Fellowship. We seek applicants whose research, teaching, and public engagements support and complement PPEH’s core commitments:
Fellows will be expected to pursue their own research agendas as well as actively participate in PPEH’s signature projects, in Philadelphia and beyond. The Fellowship carries an annual stipend of $55,000 plus health insurance and a $4,500 research fund. The first Fellowship year will run from July 2018-June 2019, with the option of reappointment following a mid-year review. (PPEH will hire a second two-year Postdoctoral Fellow to begin in July 2019.) During their two years in residence, Fellows pursue their proposed research, are required to teach one undergraduate seminar during the year, and must also participate in regular seminars, presenting research at one of those seminars. |
