The Mario Einaudi Center for International Studies
at Cornell University will award two Postdoctoral Fellowships for the 2014-15
academic year in the field of foreign policy, security studies, and diplomatic
history.
The Einaudi Center, established in 1961, helps to
stimulate, support, and coordinate Cornell's work in and about the world and
provides a forum for a broad dialogue that cuts across the disciplines and serves
to internationalize the university's research, teaching, and outreach agenda.
For additional information on the Einaudi Center, visit www.einaudi.cornell.edu.
The fellowships will provide opportunities for
research and teaching in the field of foreign policy, security studies, and
diplomatic history. We seek to attract outstanding junior scholars from all
over the world whose work demonstrates excellence in the social sciences or
humanities and addresses questions of lasting importance.
The primary responsibilities of the fellows
include research and publication of their work. Fellows are expected to
interact with undergraduate and graduate students as well as faculty; give a public
lecture; teach one undergraduate course in the spring semester; contribute to
the intellectual life of the Einaudi Center, and participate in its collective
activities and development. A member of the Center's faculty network will serve
as a mentor during the fellowship and will meet on a regular basis with the
fellow.
To Apply
Applicants should include a cover letter that
describes their research interests, a separate 1-2 page research proposal, and
a CV, and should arrange to have two referees submit letters of recommendation.
Please submit your application electronically to https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/fellowship/2966 by
January 6, 2014.
Fredrik Logevall, Vice Provost for International
Affairs, Director of the Einaudi Center and Professor of History, chairs the
selection committee. Preference will be given to recent recipients of a
doctoral degree. Finalists may be asked to visit Cornell for an on-campus
interview, or to participate in a telephone/Skype interview. Cornell University
is an equal opportunity, affirmative action educator and employer, and we
strongly encourage applications from woman and minority candidates.
Please email any inquiries to the Einaudi Center's
Director of Programming, Heike Michelsen at hm75@cornell.edu.
