MELLON POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP IN THE HUMANITIES
Penn Humanities Forum
University of Pennsylvania
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
CALL FOR APPLICATIONS
2002 - 2003 Academic Year
Application Deadline: Monday, October 15, 2001
The Penn Humanities Forum of the University of Pennsylvania
invites applications for five (5) Mellon Postdoctoral Fellowships
in the Humanities which are available for the 2002 - 2003
academic year. The fellowships are open to junior (untenured)
scholars who received or will receive their Ph.D. between
December 1993 and December 2001 (i.e., eligible applicants
must be no more than eight years out of their degree).
The programs of the Penn Humanities Forum are conceived
through yearly topics that invite broad interdisciplinary
collaboration. We have set THE BOOK as the theme for the
2002 - 2003 academic year. Research proposals are invited on
this topic in all areas of humanistic study, except educational
curriculum-building and the performing arts.
Full application details and information on the topic of
THE BOOK are available on the Forum's web site:
http://humanities.sas.upenn.edu/
*APPLICATION GUIDELINES*
Preference will be given to candidates whose proposals are
interdisciplinary, who have not previously used the resources
of the University of Pennsylvania, and who would particularly
benefit from and contribute to its intellectual life. The
Fellowship carries an annual stipend of $34,000 and is
open to international scholars.
During their year in residence, PHF Mellon Postdoctoral Fellows
will have the opportunity to pursue their own research and
study, to meet regularly with other Mellon Fellows and
university faculty, and to take part in all aspects of the
intellectual life of the University of Pennsylvania community.
Mellon Fellows are required to teach one course per semester
(fall and spring terms) in an appropriate department,
participate in the weekly interdisciplinary Research Seminar
of the Penn Humanities Forum (held Tuesdays, 12:00-2:00),
and present their research at one of those seminars.
Fellows will be accorded such faculty privileges as office
space, PC computer, and library borrowing privileges, and
are expected to be on the Penn campus during both terms
of the fellowship (September - May).
*APPLICATION DEADLINE & MAILING ADDRESS*
Completed applications and supporting materials must
be postmarked no later than OCTOBER 15, 2001.
