Full Text of JOE Listing:

The Inequality in America Initiative seeks applications from recent doctoral degree recipients interested in joining a multidisciplinary network of Harvard researchers working to address the manifold challenges of inequality. This program is intended to seed new research directions, facilitate interdisciplinary collaboration, and develop new leaders in the study of inequality.

We expect to appoint up to four fellows in 2024, with two positions dedicated to research on issues of racial and ethnic inequality and at least one position focused on work, family, and opportunity.

The fellowship is a two-year postdoctoral training program, with a salary of $76,500/year plus fringe benefits, including health insurance eligibility.

The award will also include office space and up to $17,500 for research expenses across the two years.

Fellows are expected to be in residence at Harvard. The program director will connect fellows with mentors, and fellows will have ample opportunity to make connections with faculty and students from across the University.

Applicants to the fall 2024 program must have received a doctorate *no earlier than* April 2021; those applicants without a doctorate must demonstrate that they will receive such a degree *no later than* August 2024.
