The Postdoctoral Fellow will conduct independent research and collaborate with Jackson Institute and EGC faculty, contributing to the intellectual life within and between the centers. In the spring semester, the Fellow will be expected to teach Approaches to International Development, a core course for undergraduate students in Yale’s Global Affairs major. The successful candidate will also be involved in multiple EGC data-oriented initiatives. This includes advising on the development of training materials for economics graduate students on Stata and potentially other programming packages. In addition, the fellow will have the opportunity to collaborate with a set of EGC faculty on an initiative pushing forward data access and archiving as a public good for development research.

The ideal candidate will have a demonstrated ability in conducting high quality, policy-relevant research on topics in international development and economics.

Compensation is competitive and includes health insurance and other benefits afforded to postdoctoral associates at Yale. For more information see https://your.yale.edu/enroll#pda .
