Dow Postdoctoral Fellowships in Sustainability at the University of Michigan
Application deadline: December 13, 2013 Established through a gift from the Dow Chemical Company, the Dow Postdoctoral Sustainability Fellows Program is administered by the Graham Sustainability Institute at the University of Michigan (U-M) to support full-time postdoctoral scholars committed to finding interdisciplinary, actionable, and meaningful sustainability solutions. These fellowships support a new generation of sustainability scholars who understand the necessity of collaborating across disciplines and sectors to address complex sustainability challenges. Fellowships are funded through a mix of support from the Dow program and U-M units. The program seeks candidates working on sustainability issues at the interface of the social sciences/humanities and natural/physical/engineering sciences. We are accepting applications from qualified candidates who received their Ph.D. or comparable professional or artistic degree within four years of the fellowship start date (i.e., between September 1, 2010 and September 1, 2014). In rare circumstances, this timeframe can be relaxed, but you must consult with the program ([email protected]) before applying if your degree was awarded before September 1, 2010. Non-US citizens may apply. All application materials, except the two letters of recommendation, must be submitted by the candidate online. More information about the program and application process, including a link to the intent to apply and application form is available online: http://graham.umich.edu/media/files/Dow-Postdoc-2014-RFP.pdf. ______________________________________________________ Manja P.
