Each fellowship is expected to be awarded for up to two years: one year at Princeton University and one year at Fudan University. The position is primarily open to data science-relevant disciplines, but it can be open to any discipline, as long as the fellow conducts research on contemporary China and big data. The candidate’s research must be supervised by a faculty member at each University and, as such, must receive the endorsement of a faculty member at each institution in order to apply.

Application documents must include:

-A research proposal and time plan (max. 10 pages in total)

-Concise Curriculum Vitae (max. 4 pages in total)

-Two recommendation letters (including one from the applicant’s doctoral supervisor)

-Endorsements from a potential supervisor at each of the two universities

-One writing sample (not to exceed 10MB).

Incomplete submissions will not be considered.

Application deadline: May 1, 2019 by 11:59 p.m. EST.
