We welcome applicants from multiple disciplinary traditions, including but not limited to public health, political science, and economics. Priority will be given to candidates whose work can speak to major questions in multiple disciplinary traditions.
The post-doctoral fellow will be appointed to an appropriate academic department at the college. Post-Doctoral Fellows will teach three policy/public affairs courses per year through their home department, pursue their own scholarly research, participate in various IFC-sponsored events on campus, and contribute through their teaching and scholarly activities to public affairs education on campus. This is a two-year fellowship beginning mid-August, 2024.
