FELLOWSHIP- Postdoctoral Fellowships in the Near Eastern Studies, Princeton

Posted by: Michael A. Reynolds <mar123 at Princeton.EDU>

Please note that this announcement refers to the Middle East broadly
defined, including the Caucasus, Central Asia, and other related areas.


Princeton University
Postdoctoral Fellowships in the Near Eastern Studies Department

Applications are invited for postdoctoral fellowships in the study of 
the Middle East since the First World War. The Department hopes to
make two appointments for two academic years each, with the
possibility of renewal for a third year. Applicants must have the
Ph.D. in hand; discipline is open. Successful candidates will be
expected to contribute to the life of the Department in several ways
(convening a seminar on the modern Middle East, organizing occasional
small conferences, teaching a limited number of courses, advising some
undergraduates in their independent work, and participating in
outreach activities). However, the bulk of their time is to be devoted
to research and publication, and to broadening their knowledge of the
Middle East, including its pre-modern heritage where this is relevant
to their research interests. Competitive salary plus benefits; each
appointee will have a small research fund.

To apply, send a current c.v., a two-page personal statement, a
three-page description of the research and writing projects in which
you would engage while at Princeton, and two sample papers or
chapters. These should be mailed to Postdoctoral Fellowships, The Near
Eastern Studies Department, Jones Hall, Princeton University,
Princeton, NJ 08544, U.S.A., and should be received by April 2, 2007.
Applicants should have three letters of recommendation mailed
separately to the same address. Short-listed candidates may be invited
for campus interviews. Inquiries may be e-mailed to Professor Michael
Cook (mcook at princeton.edu).
