The Institute for Research on Women and Gender invites applications for
Visiting Scholar positions from post-doctoral scholars and researchers
whose work focuses on women or gender. The goal of the Visiting Scholar
program is to enhance disciplinary and interdisciplinary scholarship on
women and gender at the University of Michigan. Visiting Scholars will
have full access to the Institute’s community, and will be automatically
affiliated with the Women’s Studies Program.
-
Each Visiting Scholar will be invited to join or organize a study group,
and to present her or his work at an Institute-sponsored forum.
-
Visiting Scholars will ordinarily be housed at the Institute, where they
will be provided with:
-
office space with a computer and phone,
-
an e-mail account, and
-
access to the University library system.
-
No salary, stipend, research funding, health insurance, or travel or moving
reimbursement is included.
-
A small fund (a total of $125/semester, not to exceed $250 for an academic
year) will be provided for long-distance, fax, and copying charges.
Appointments may be requested for summer, fall or winter terms, or for
an entire academic year. Appointments will be awarded based on a fit between
the candidate’s interests and those of faculty, scholars and researchers
currently affiliated with the Institute, and will be subject to space availability.
Applications should include a cover letter describing your research interests,
the project(s) you would pursue while at the Institute, a curriculum vita,
and the names and contact information for three references. Also, please
identify any faculty, scholars or researchers currently at the University
of Michigan with whom you are planning to work, or whose work is in your
area. Applications for the next academic year are reviewed on a rolling basis, and must be received by December 1 of the previous year. Applications should be sent to:
