POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCH SCHOLAR POSITION IN UKRAINIAN STUDIES
The Harriman Institute invites applications for a post-doctoral research scholar in Ukrainian studies, for one semester (Fall or Spring) in the academic year 2016 – 2017. The scholar will teach one course of broad interest to upper level undergraduates and/or master’s degree students. Eligibility is restricted to those who have received the Ph.D. between July 31, 2013 and June 30, 2016 and do not hold a tenure-track position. The area of research and teaching specialization is open, but should be focused on some aspect of current Ukrainian life, politics, and/or international affairs. The visitor is expected to give one public lecture and to participate in the academic life of the Harriman Institute. The position comes with a stipend of $25,000. There is a $500 research allowance.
This position is made possible by generous support of the Petro Jacyk Ukrainian Studies Fund.
To apply, candidates should send the following materials to Alla Rachkov ([email protected]), in a single PDF file by January 15: a letter of application; curriculum vitae; the names of three persons who may be asked to provide a letter of reference; past teaching evaluations, if available; and a modest sample (article or book or dissertation chapter) of scholarship. The letter of application should include a statement of which semester the applicant prefers, a short list of possible courses which the applicant might teach, and a description of the applicant’s current research interests.
Decisions regarding the selection of postdoctoral fellows are made by March, and applicants will be notified in a timely manner.
Columbia University is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action employer.
