<pre>The President's Diversity Initiative at the University of Delaware,
in collaboration with the Center for the Study of Diversity, invites
applications from recent Ph.D. graduates for two postdoctoral
positions. The purpose is to promote early career scholars who are
doing work that furthers our understanding of diversity. We are
particularly interested in those who can contribute to
interdisciplinary understanding in any of the following areas:
<b>Diversity, Access, and Educational Policy</b>
<b>Health, Environment, and Social Inequalities
</b>
These positions will be awarded for a one-year period beginning
September 1, 2013 through August 31, 2014, renewable for a second
year. Postdoctoral scholars will work with senior mentors and peers
and will be expected to teach one course during each year in
residence, as well as participating in faculty development
opportunities provided by the Office of the President's Diversity
Initiative. The time in residence will include mentoring experiences
that will help these scholars publish their scholarly work, develop
strong teaching skills, and learn about funding opportunities.
Postdoctoral scholars will be expected to engage with the activities
of the Center for the Study of Diversity and may also be affiliated
with other Centers/Institutes at the University, depending on the area
of research. These scholars will be expected to share their work with
other UD faculty either by a formal lecture, colloquium, or other
appropriate venue.
All requirements for the Ph.D. must be completed before the start
date, with strong preference for those who have earned their degree
within the last two years. Applicants must not have another employment
obligation to follow this appointment. Postdoctoral scholars will
receive a salary of $60,000 plus University health care benefits.
Postdoctoral scholars will have full access to the University of
Delaware Library and will be given $5000 in support for research and
/or professional travel expenses, as well as a computer and full
access to the university IT resources. The term for these positions
extends from September 1, 2013 until August 31, 2014.
