Description
The Princeton Initiative in Architecture, Urbanism, and the Humanities is seeking fellows to be appointed at the rank of postdoctoral research associates or more senior applications for the 2026-2027 academic year. Appointment rank will be determined based on the applicant's qualifications at the time of appointment.
The Princeton Initiative in Architecture, Urbanism, and the Humanities is an interdisciplinary program that combines the efforts of a diverse group of faculty, programs, and schools to develop a dynamic understanding of urban issues past, present, and future. Its theme, Cities on the Edge, encompasses several interrelated concepts, including the juncture of built/natural environmental studies, center/ periphery, hemispheric comparatives, migration, New Jersey urbanism, social justice, the humanities as a force of change, and the margin as a place of radical possibility. Additional information about its themes and program may be found at https://arc-hum.princeton.edu/.
Qualifications
We seek to hire fellows with an abiding interest in multi-disciplinary work focused on the intersection of architecture, urbanism, and the humanities. Candidates can come from any discipline. The individual may teach or team-teach an interdisciplinary course on some aspect of urbanism (contingent upon sufficient enrollments and approval from the Dean of the Faculty) and participate in Initiative events.
Fields of specialization might include (but are not limited to) the humanistic dimensions of architecture, architectural history, design, urban planning, public policy, urban studies, environmental studies, science and technology studies, geography, history, philosophy, art history, material culture, politics, sociology, anthropology, literature, religion, cultural studies, queer studies, race and ethnicity studies, gender studies, performance studies, visual arts, documentary studies, photography, and creative writing. Fellows may focus on any geographic area. We particularly encourage applications from scholars whose work incorporates the themes of the Initiative as well as the Princeton University Humanities Council, M.S. Chadha Center for Global India, and the School of Architecture. More information can be found here https://humanities.princeton.edu/ and https://soa.princeton.edu/.
Application Instructions
We will accept applications from those who have earned a Ph.D. in any discipline (or those who expect to earn their doctorate before December 2026). Applicants must apply online and submit a cover letter, vita, 500-word description of a proposed course (uploaded under “Teaching Statement”), brief (chapter or article-length) single-authored writing sample, 1,000-word description of a research project, and contact information for three references by October 21, 2026, 11:59 pm, EST for full consideration. Letters of recommendation will be requested for a smaller group of applicants at a later date.
The Fellows will receive $75,000, plus benefits, for a 12-month appointment with an anticipated start date in January 2027. This position is not eligible for sponsorship of an H-1B visa requiring consular processing; other visa sponsorships (including H-1B visas not requiring consular processing) may be available, as appropriate. This position is subject to the University's background check policy. The work location for this position is in-person on campus at Princeton University.
The term of appointment is based on rank. Positions at the postdoctoral rank are for one year with the possibility of renewal pending satisfactory performance and continued funding; those hired at more senior ranks may have multi-year appointments.
