VISITING RESEARCH ASSOCIATES IN
WOMEN'S STUDIES
NORTHEASTERN UNIVERSITY, BOSTON, MA
2005-2006

The Women's Studies Program at Northeastern University annually offers
Research Associate positions to scholars researching topics on women or
gender issues in the humanities and sciences. Scholars are in residence
for the academic year (or shorter) at Northeastern University in Boston,
Massachusetts. During 2005-2006, the Women's Studies Program will expand
its commitment in interdisciplinary applied research to include the
intersectionality of race and gender. The proposed ICGESR devoted to
basic research will expand the relationship between theory and community
particularly research locally, nationally and internationally. Scholars
must have their own financial support, but are provided with office
space, library privileges, free computer time on Northeastern's
mainframe, limited support for photocopy, fax and postage expenses
related to research.

Northeastern University has one of the strongest faculties in Women's
Studies in New England. The Women's Studies program sponsors many
seminars, lectures, conferences and colloquia, including the Boston
Feminist Theory Colloquium.

Located in the center of Boston, Northeastern University is ideally
located for visiting scholars. In addition to its proximity to Boston's
rich cultural and artistic life, Northeastern is close to major research
libraries such as the Boston Public Library, the Schlesinger Library at
Radcliffe as well as numerous academic institutions that make the
intellectual life of Boston one of the richest in the country.

Scholars may apply by sending a brief statement of their project, dates
of expected residency and a current curriculum to: Prof. Robin Chandler,
Director, The Women's Studies Program/ 522 HO, Northeastern University,
360 Huntington Ave.,
Boston, MA 02115 by *May 15, 2005*
