Diversity Fellowships in Science & Technology Studies at Cornell

Doctoral and Postdoctoral Diversity Fellowships
Department of Science & Technology Studies
Cornell University


The Department of Science & Technology Studies at Cornell University
solicits applications for doctoral/postdoctoral diversity fellowships from
scholars who show promise of distinguished research careers.
Eligible applicants might be from underrepresented groups, have faced
economic hardship, be first-generation college graduates, or work on topics
related to these areas.  Applicants with training in science & technology
studies or related fields such as the history, sociology, or anthropology of
science & technology are welcome to apply.

The fellowships come in two forms.  Applicants who expect to complete their
Ph.D.'s in 2013-14 are eligible for three-year fellowships consisting of a
doctoral completion year followed by two postdoctoral years.  Those who
expect to complete their degrees in 2012-13 may apply for two-year
postdoctoral fellowships.  There is no teaching associated with the doctoral
completion fellowship year.  Postdoctoral fellows teach one course per year,
above the entry level, in fields related to their research.

For 2013-14, the award levels will be: doctoral: $31,000;
postdoctoral: $56,000. Applications should consist of a cover letter, a
curriculum vitae, a dissertation abstract, a writing sample, and the names
of three references.  The application should be sent electronically to
rls55@cornell.edu.  The deadline for receipt of applications is November 1,
2012.
