Post Doctoral Fellowship in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania at University of Pittsburgh

Post Doctoral Fellowship
Center for Philosophy of Science - Pennsylvania-Pittsburgh - (26006399)

Postdoctoral Fellowships enable philosophers of science within five years of their doctorate to spend a two-term academic year at the Center for Philosophy of Science, working on a self-proposed project in philosophy of science. Two Postdoctoral Fellowships are offered each year.

The Center encourages applications from assistant professors in the early stages of their careers, as well as from scholars who have recently completed their doctorates.

Postdoctoral Fellows are not required to teach or take on administrative responsibilities. They are, however, expected to reside in Pittsburgh, undertake full-time research in an office at the Center, and participate in the Center's intellectual life by attending and giving talks and contributing to discussion groups.

• A project description (500–1,000 words) outlining the work to be undertaken during the fellowship.
