Fellowship Announcement: Global Justice Post Doctoral Fellowships at Stanford

By Lawrence Solum

The Center for Ethics in Society / Program on Global Justice Post Doctoral Fellowships

This fellowship program is run jointly by The Center for Ethics in Society and the Program on Global Justice. For 2011-2012, we seek up to four post doctoral fellows. We welcome candidates with substantial normative research interests from diverse backgrounds including philosophy, the social sciences, and professional schools. We are especially interested in candidates with research interests in international topics, including human rights, immigration, and environmental justice, but we welcome all applicants with strong normative interests that have some practical implications. Fellows will teach one class, participate in the Political Theory and Global Justice Workshops, interact with undergraduates in the Ethics in Society program and help in developing an inter-disciplinary ethics community across the campus.

Appointment is for one year, but may be renewed for an additional year. Applicants must have their doctoral degree in hand no later than 30 days prior to the appointment start date and be no more than 3 years from the awarding of the degree.

Stanford University is an equal opportunity employer and is committed to increasing the diversity of its faculty. It welcomes applications from women and members of minority groups, as well as others who would bring additional dimensions to the university's research and teaching missions. Salary is competitive.

DEADLINE: We are moving to an online application system and will no longer be accepting hard copy applications. The online system will be ready later this year and as we near the end of the testing phase (towards the end of Fall quarter), we will post specific information about the application process. Please note that the application (i.e., a CV, three references, and a writing sample of no more than 25 pages) deadline is January 12, 2011 (5:00pm Pacific Standard Time).

For inquiries, please contact Joan Berry at joanberry@stanford.edu.
